NEW YORK DRUG DEALER PARDONED BY TRUMP RETURNED TO PRISON FOR BREAKING RELEASE TERMS. (PHOTO).


 New York drug dealer pardoned by Trump returned to prison for breaking release terms

A New York man whose prison sentence was commuted by President Donald Trump was sent back to federal prison Monday after violating the conditions of his release and facing new criminal charges. Jonathan Braun, a Long Island resident, was sentenced to 27 months behind bars.

Braun’s offenses while on release included threatening a hospital nurse with an IV pole, groping his family’s nanny, verbally assaulting a synagogue member, and repeatedly evading bridge tolls. Brooklyn federal Judge Kiyo Matsumoto acknowledged Braun’s expressions of remorse but stressed he must follow the law, telling him, “Don’t squander it.” Prosecutors had sought a five-year term, describing Braun as a continuing danger to the public. Braun has been held in a Brooklyn federal jail since his April arrest, with that time credited toward his sentence.

His federal public defender, Kathryn Wozencroft, said Braun has been receiving psychiatric care, pursuing sobriety, and reconnecting with faith and community support, including regular meetings with a rabbi. She argued his misconduct was linked to addiction and that he had used his time in custody to reflect and take corrective steps.

Braun was initially sentenced to 10 years in federal prison in 2019 for drug trafficking, having been a senior member of a network that smuggled over 100,000 kilograms of marijuana from Canada into the U.S. He served roughly a year before Trump commuted his sentence in January 2021, though conditions of his release, including staying out of legal trouble and paying fines, remained in effect.

Federal prosecutors detailed multiple incidents: in January, Braun allegedly swung an IV pole at a hospital nurse; in February, he physically assaulted the family’s live-in nanny; in March, he threatened a worshipper at his synagogue; and over the summer, he repeatedly avoided paying bridge tolls while driving luxury vehicles. Additionally, he failed to make payments toward his court-ordered fines and did not provide accurate financial disclosures to probation officials.
