The Charges
AUG 28– JOHN P. GILBRIDE, Special Agent-in-Charge of the United States Drug Enforcement Administration’s New York Field Division (“DEA”), JAVIER F. PEÑA, Special Agent-in-Charge of DEA’s Caribbean Division and PREET BHARARA, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, announced that charges were unsealed against CHRISTOPHER MICHAEL COKE, a/k/a “Michael Christopher Coke,” a/k/a “Paul Christopher Scott,” a/k/a “Presi,” a/k/a “General,” a/k/a “President,” a/k/a “Duddus,” a/k/a “Shortman.”
COKE is charged with conspiracy to distribute marijuana and cocaine and conspiracy to illegally traffic in firearms. The United States has formally requested through diplomatic channels that Jamaican authorities arrest COKE and extradite him to the Southern District of New York on the U.S. charges. According to the Superseding Indictment unsealed on Friday, August 28, 2009 in Manhattan federal court:
COKE leads an international criminal organization known as the “Shower Posse,” with members in Jamaica, the United States, and other countries — which he has led since the early 1990s. At COKE’s direction and under his protection, members of his criminal organization sell marijuana and crack cocaine in the New York area and elsewhere, and send the narcotics proceeds back to COKE and his co-conspirators. COKE and his co-conspirators also arm their organization with illegally trafficked firearms. COKE has been named by the U.S. Department of Justice to the list of Consolidated Priority Organization Targets “CPOTs”), which includes the world’s most dangerous narcotics kingpins.
COKE, 40, is charged with conspiracy to distribute cocaine and marijuana and conspiracy to illegally traffic in firearms. If convicted on the narcotics charge, he faces a maximum sentence of life in prison and a mandatory minimum sentence of 10 years in prison, as well as a fine of up to $4 million or twice the pecuniary gain from the offense. He also faces a maximum sentence of five years in prison on the firearms trafficking charge, and a fine of up to $250,000 or twice the pecuniary gain.
Mr. BHARARA praised the investigative work of the DEA’s New York Field Division and Caribbean Division, and thanked the U.S. Department of Justice Office of International Affairs for their assistance.
“The charges against Christopher Michael Coke starkly illustrate the dangerous connection between the international trade in narcotics and illicit firearms,” said United States Attorney BHARARA. “The charges are another important step in our bringing to justice the world’s most dangerous criminals, wherever they may be found.”
Assistant United States Attorneys JOCELYN STRAUBER and JOHN ZACH are in charge of the prosecution, which is being handled by the Office’s International Narcotics Trafficking Unit.
The charges contained in the Indictment are merely accusations and the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.

a little bit of extradition hsitory....
Jamaica and the US entered into an extradition treaty on June 4, 1983. The treaty became a part of the domestic law of Jamaica by the Extradition (Foreign States) Order, 1991, which was published in the Jamaica Gazette Supplement, Proclamation, Rules and Regulations on June 27, 1991. As a consequence of the treaty, Parliament enacted the Extradition Act, 1991, which received the governor general's assent on March 14, 1991 and came into operation on July 8, 1991.
Former US President Ronald Reagan ratified the treaty, with the advice and consent of the Senate, on August 17, 1984. The treaty was ratified on behalf of the Government of Jamaica by Carl Rattray, the then minister of justice, on May 3, 1997.
Both the Extradition Act and the extradition treaty govern extradition proceedings in Jamaica. The Government of Jamaica's action or inaction, or its act of commission or act of omission, must be examined within the context of both instruments. Article VII of the treaty provides that "neither party shall be bound to deliver up its own national". Section 7 (5) of the Extradition Act is in similar term:
However, extradition shall not be refused if the person for whom an extradition request is made possesses dual nationality.
Therefore, both the act and the treaty confer a wide and general discretion on the minister to determine whether Jamaica should extradite one of its citizens to a foreign country to stand trial for alleged criminal offence(s). The reason is clear. It is prima facie a breach of the citizen's constitutional right not to be forcibly removed from his country where he has committed no infringement of its law to a foreign state on the basis of allegations. But this is not an absolute right and is subject to public-interest considerations in fighting transnational crime and bringing fugitives to justice.
Under the act, the minister's discretion is exercisable in two stages. The first stage I will refer to as the pre-committal stage and the second, post-committal stage.
I had a great Friday night got to celebrate with a good friend Tahero, for his birthday with his eclectic crowd of friends. Its has been a while since i spun in the city, I totally forget the randomness of life , that is displayed Friday nights in NY city. Party Boys and Drunk and high girls.......
a muscle relaxer later.......
MONDAY
Summer slowly approaches and New York becomes the pressure cooker. I am still trying to process the season finale of LOST. It left me like why did i watch this show for six years again? I really appreciate every episode up until the last four hours of the show. If jack was holding on too life, what was everything else a bad LSD trip or Jacks nirvana? I knew it would leave me with questions and higher expectation for any T.V showed that followed, that's why heroes and FlashForward was cancelled, they both had interesting concepts but they could not replicate the symbiotic relationships that the LOST ensemble had. T.V and Movies and videos all suck these days. Its all cheap reality and fake Utopian scenarios, Books, T.V if not biographical should take you to a place you cant imagine and only get a glimpse on the screen, once a week. That's what Lost gave me once a week some new adventure, in a place i will never be.....until it was all about jack dying..about all of them dying....or against dying but still being around and holding on.....anyway thanks LOST for giving me some gudtv!!
Been trying to teach myself this Logic 9...its giving me grief i have found allot of useful information on to learn from so Mondays will be Music Mondays for awhile, i hope that get some helpful hints ill post Garageband and Logic for Macs first then we will move on to other programs. But before we get all technorific, this is the perfect tour bus
Man today was one of those days that, i wished i was on a beach with a drink in hand, instead life's a beach and i cant get a hand! But as always "On to the next one".......
I cannot wait for LOST tonight, its sad that there is only two episodes left but at least i wont be attached to any T.V show anymore.
Big shout to all friends of mine that got older this month (Big Up All TAURUS MASSIVE) there are too many of y'all to name. Life is as boring as the plains in Iowa and unpredictable like a tornado popping out of the air causing havoc. I had a lucky day yesterday and I am not in pain so like Ice Cube would say it was a "good day"
Since we riding out check this video.
vicked form NAHRIGHT
Just Blaze talks about the remix...I posted this because , there was a time when Bonita Applebaum
was remixed and the remix was a whole different sound and song,
or even Buddy by De La Soul had a real remix.
and this one i dedicate to all those ladies especially my X cause she liked cake....
Howdy Hoe!!! folks, I'm a few mins from lift off, about to watch Survivor and bounce to the radio station in a real loose sense of the term...but its a hustle and everyday we gotta do that to stay fresh. Its Thursday night spring in NY which is a real surprise since, usually it winter then summer. Feels good to be able to do the show tonight i been out of commission and that's NO FUN. One bonus about doing this show is that i wont have to see the SuperCavs take a loss. If they win then i can watch the re-run. But if they lose THEN PLEASE BABY PLEASE COME TO THE NY KNICKS SO WE CAN BOO YOU LIKE THE CAVS DID. Man this guy Lebron has more pressure on him and i think there is a crack in the pipe...DONT GIVE UP i want Shaq to get another ring and i want him to leave Kobe Bryant with that sourpuss he always has when he takes a loss!
This is what it is tonight 10pm - 12pm
BEATS RHYMES LIFE RADIO>>>Big up ENGLISH AND STASH!!!
These damn CAVS, I dont believe they are selling out like this. Just came from a Law and Order shoot, went to check a friend...it made me sick with envy. When you can work a place and love what you do it is the best expierence. Everytime i turn on a late night show im seeing more and more of Queen Latifah promoting her new movie with Common, prob wont catch me going to that movie in a theater near you anytime soon, unless the misses needs a date night. Big shout dj RPM....I see you hustling! I watched Lost tonight and as much as i love that show, and i knew that the show wouldnt give me every answer, but a light the light in the world, "this little light of mine, im gonna let it shine"....Please dont make me hate the show in the last three episodes arghhhh. Anyway im contemplating going to see that Augst Wilson's Play starrirng Denzel Washington. I will let you know if its worth the money.
Yeah what up? The weekend is here for the 9 to 5ers. Spring is cooperating with us and it is beautiful in NY. Lets start the day right check this vidoe out by Old School legend
Schooly D - "I just cant help myself. Yes i know its a little campy, but this is the guy that brought us
PSK....and Looking at my Gucci....so this is only right that i post his new song, its a little poppy but so is the rest of this hip hop bagel.
Sitting back in pain, for two weeks. I really didn't care about anything so for the neglect. I love Beyonces song "why don't you love me" and the video is on par with the song.
I get tired of seeing these high gloss videos all of the time. I mean yes it does look like , there is and amazing time being had by everyone, but the reality is that that's a 12hour party with videos then life moves on, the p.a breaks down the video set, the director moves on to the next treatment, and the artist has to pay for the edit and the marketing of his or her video and music. The reality is that we watch these videos to escape our real world, and man i need to be on Jay-Z "big Pimping boat right now...
for the last two weeks its been my aching back combined with no type of comfortable sleep...Thank the pharmacist for legal drugs!!! Anyway enough about me and on to you, I will be able to post more things since i will be One with the floor and close to a comfortable couch...Big shout to all the staff at SI.LIJ...
