Narrative:
Yankee block active overhead jfk. Air carrier X issued clearance direct to newes, cross newes at FL260. Read back cross newes at FL240. Read back missed, entered military block airspace within 5 mi of newes. Supplemental information from acn 629354: the previous controller gave a crossing restr that is used all the time. The problem this time is that I missed the check on. Since there was a military cap over new york city, the normal restr caused the aircraft to penetrate the military cap. Supplemental information from acn 629353: radar controller tried too late to stop the aircraft's descent.
