Judge Denies 6ix9ine’s Request to Serve Remainder of Sentence at Home Due to Coronavirus
Written by SOURCE on March 25, 2020
6ix9ine will not be released from prison early, into home confinement or otherwise, even though he is more at risk of contracting coronavirus due to pre-existing conditions, including asthma. An order from Judge Paul A. Engelmayer arrived Wednesday.
“Had the Court known that sentencing Mr. Hernandez to serve the final four months of his term in a federal prison would have exposed him to a heightened health risk, the Court would have directed that these four months be served instead in home confinement,” the order concludes. “The Court accordingly denies Mr. Hernandez’s motion for relief.”
