PETITIONING THE COURT

To modify the conditions of supervision as follows: 

The releasee shall participate in a program of mental health treatment with an emphasis

on domestic violence, which may include a regimen of prescribed psychotropic

medications, as directed by the probation officer.

Justification: On June 9, 2006, the releasee was arrested by officers of the Bakersfield

Police Department for violation of Penal Code Section 273.5 - Spousal Abuse and Penal

Code Section 236 - False Imprisonment. According to the Probable Cause Declaration,

completed by the arresting officer, the victim, Christina Trice, stated that her fiancee (Willis)

whom she has a child with and cohabitates with was involved in an argument. The victim

stated that during the argument Willis grabbed her by the neck and punched her in the

face, causing visible injuries. The victim stated that she tried to leave the residence

however, Willis pulled her by the hair and dragged her back into the residence, against her

will.

On June 10, 2006, the releasee posted bond and was released from the Kern County

Lerdo Jail Facility. On June 13, 2006, the releasee reported to the U. S. Probation Office

for a scheduled appointment. The releasee admitted he was involved in a verbal

altercation with his fiancee which escalated to physical force. According to the releasee,

he did not strike his fiancee, however, admitted shoving her and putting his hand around

her neck. The releasee stated that he was also physically assaulted by his fiancee and

showed the undersigned officer two locations on his arm where he had severe bruising,

which he stated were the result of bite marks. The undersigned officer photographed the

releasee's arm.
