RE: PRESS RELEASE
DISTRICT ATTORNEY D. HOLLEY CARNRIGHT ANNOUNCES: JURY CONVICTS KINGSTON MAN OBSTRUCTING GOVERNMENTAL ADMINISTRATION
Fabian Marshall, 27, was found guilty of Obstructing Governmental Administration following a jury trial that began November 1, 2017.
The case against Marshall arose in September of 2015. Members of Kingston Police Department responded to a report of an assault on Broadway. Officers attempted to interview Marshall, who was in the same area of the reported assault and matched the description of the assailant. Marshall refused to comply with officers requests, became uncooperative, and fought with officers. The fight prevented officers from investigating the assault further.
The case was presided over by the Honorable Judge Lawrence Ball. Marshall will be sentenced on January 8, 2018.
The case is being prosecuted by Ulster County Assistant District Attorney Jarrid E. Blades. The defendant is represented by Raymond Sprowls, Esq.
