Circuit Judge Jose A. Cabranes said Friday that the sentence meted out to Mumuni, 23, was 80% below the advisory guidelines of 85 years — and he sent the ruling back to the lower court for possible resentencing.
“This clearly erroneous assessment of the evidence leaves us with the definite and firm conviction that a mistake has been committed,” Cabranes wrote for the majority in the new ruling. “[It was] a mistake that resulted in a shockingly low sentence that, if upheld, would damage the administration of justice in our country.” Related: Fereed Mumuni: 2017-02-11 Queens ISIS wannabe pleads guilty to attacking FBI agent with a knife in the name of the terror group Fereed Mumuni: 2015-06-18 Feds: NYC man tried to stab agent during ISIS-related probe Related: Freed Mumun: 2017-02-11 Queens ISIS wannabe pleads guilty to attacking FBI agent with a knife in the name of the terror group Freed Mumun: 2015-06-19 Fourth alleged IS suspect arrested in New York area Related: Junaid Hussain: 2018-02-08 College student is jailed for 18 years after helping ISIS plot a pressure-cooker bomb attack on New York City Junaid Hussain: 2017-12-20 Man gets 28 years in plot to behead conservative blogger Junaid Hussain: 2017-09-21 Trial opens for final American in Islamic State-linked police beheading plot Related: Nader Saadeh: 2018-05-01 Man faces sentencing for assisting in terror plot Nader Saadeh: 2015-08-12 Jordanian-U.S. Suspect Nabbed in NY Area IS Ring Related: Munther Omar Saleh: 2018-02-08 College student is jailed for 18 years after helping ISIS plot a pressure-cooker bomb attack on New York City Munther Omar Saleh: 2017-02-11 Queens ISIS wannabe pleads guilty to attacking FBI agent with a knife in the name of the terror group Munther Omar Saleh: 2015-06-19 Fourth alleged IS suspect arrested in New York area | |||||
