STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] 

SUPPLEMENTAL ORDER RE: 

CONDITIONS OF RELEASE FROM 

DETENTION AS TO DEFENDANT 

ONSAYO ABRAM 

Magistrate Judge Laurel Beeler 

_____________________________________ 

 1. On January 19, 2010, counsel for Mr. Abram and counsel for the government 

appeared at a detention hearing before the Honorable Magistrate Judge Laurel Beeler. Pre-Trial 

Services recommended that Mr. Abram be released on an unsecured surety bond signed by his 

wife. Ms. Abram appeared, was advised of the surety terms and conditions, and signed as a 

surety. The government requested that Mr. Abram’s parents post the equity in their home in 

Tolleson, Arizona, as additional security. Mr. Abrams’ parents at the time believed that they 

may have up to $100,000 in equity in their home; the parties understood, however, that given the 

current real estate market, the anticipated value may have declined. The Court ordered defense 

counsel to verify the value of the property and pursue an agreement with the government 

pursuant to General Order 55, whereby the property would be posted as bond in this matter. 

2. Defense counsel and Mr. Abram’s parents sought information about the value of the 

home in Tolleson, Arizona, and provided the same to counsel for the government. Mr. and Mrs.

Abram represented that the current mortgage balance on their home was, in round figures, 

$185,000. Using comparable sales provided by a local real estate agent, the current value of the 

home was estimated to be $100,000. Unfortunately, therefore, there was no equity in the home 

to post as security in this case. 

3. Mr. and Mrs. Abram own a 2002 Ford Explorer, for which the Kelly Blue Book value is 

approximately $6,500. Verification of their ownership, and of the value of the vehicle, has been 

provided to counsel for the government. Mr. and Mrs. Abram have also executed and provided 

to the government an Affidavit of Owner of Cash Security setting forth and describing their 

interest as the equivalent of cash security. The government has agreed to accept the posting of 

this vehicle as security for Mr. Abram’s release, in lieu of the posting of their home. 

4. Defense counsel has provided Mr. and Mrs. Abram with the Complaint, Indictment and 

Penalty Sheet in this case and is informed and believes that they have read and understood the 

contents of those documents, as well as understanding the conditions imposed on Onsayo Abram 

and on themselves as sureties, in connection with his release herein. Specifically, defense 

counsel is informed and believes that Mr. and Mrs. Abram understand that they stand to lose 

their entire interest in the posted vehicle should Mr. Onsayo Abram fail to appear in court and/or 

adhere to the other conditions imposed upon him in connection with his release. 

SO STIPULATED.
