BRYANT BROWN, also known as “Trigga,” has been handed a 24-year sentence by U.S. District Judge Paul A. Engelmayer for the December 2015 murder of Albendris Nunez and a subsequent armed robbery in 2017. The United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, Damian Williams, announced the sentence, emphasizing that the murder was committed over just $600 worth of marijuana.
Williams recounted the events, stating: “On a Sunday morning in 2015, Bryant Brown shot and killed Albendris Nunez in Devoe Park in the Bronx. This senseless act will be met with a substantial sentence in federal prison.”
The indictment and court filings detailed how Brown, on December 20, 2015, attempted to rob Nunez of the marijuana over Facebook, then shot him in the back during the planned robbery.
In another incident, on November 18, 2017, Brown and a co-conspirator robbed a victim inside an apartment building in the Bronx. Brown struck the victim in the face with a gun, committing yet another violent act.
Additionally, Brown, aged 26 at the time of sentencing, was sentenced to three years of supervised release following his prison term. U.S. Attorney Damian Williams commended the New York City Police Department for their outstanding investigative work in this case.
The prosecution is handled by Assistant United States Attorneys Jamie Bagliebter and Mollie Bracewell within the Office’s Violent and Organized Crime Unit.
