Fahie sentencing now set for Aug 5, 2024; Requests minimum 10-year sentence
After several delays, Mr Fahie was scheduled to be sentenced on June 25, 2024; however, his legal team successfully applied for a postponement.
Mr Fahie, 53, who was found guilty on February 8, 2024, on charges of drug smuggling, money laundering, and racketeering, after he was arrested at a Miami Airport on April 28, 2022, will now be sentenced on August 5, 2024.
Assuming sentencing takes place as currently scheduled, Mr Fahie will have spent an additional 179 days in custody post-conviction before the day of sentencing.
Minimum 10-year-sentence requested
According to court records seen by our News Centre, Mr Fahie, through his lawyers, has moved for a sentence that is no more than the statutorily required minimum sentence of 120 months [10 years], which, in accordance with United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220 (2005), is a reasonable sentence that adequately reflects the seriousness of the offense and provides just and reasonable punishment.
Mr Fahie’s lawyers also proposed that credit must be given for time served.

the fact that he touched the money is worst than touching the drug. Because of his dealings of getting the drugs to the USA, a place that is not his place is the reason for them in the USA to lock him up and throw away the keys. Watch you self. Then that one there talking about immunity!! To much crap happening between elected politician, and they getting away with it because of this stupid immunity fart!!!!! So because you in leadership position you must do what you want? Not under God's heavens, and then still mocking God. He go deal with all of them, tic tok, tic, tok tok; time longer than twine!!!!!!!! A whole bunch of them God is watching in the Caribbean, wait and see God work, remember this!!!!!
