3 PROB12C.TSR(NORTHERN).MRG

Charge 2: UNAUTHORIZED INTERNET ACCESS

On or about August 1, 2004, through April 7, 2006, the offender utilized the internet via

Yahoo account where he sent and received e-mail which is in violation of Special Condition

Number 6 directing him not to possess or use a computer with access to any on-line

computer service. 

Charge 3: FAILURE TO PROVIDE PERSONAL PHONE RECORDS

Between June, 2005 and September, 2005, the offender failed to provide personal phone

records as requested by the probation officer which is in violation of Special Condition

Number 10 directing him to provide all personal phone records as directed.

Charge 4: FAILURE TO SUBMIT MONTHLY SUPERVISION REPORTS

Between June, 2005 and September, 2005, the offender failed to submit monthly

supervision reports as directed by the probation officer which is in violation of Standard

Condition Number 2. 

Justification: During a home contact on April 7, 2006, a piece of paper in plain view

with the offender's name, address and an Yahoo e-mail address was discovered. When

questioned about the Yahoo address, the offender reported the Yahoo account belonged

to his girlfriend, and that she accesses the internet for him when necessary. When asked

for the password into the account, the offender denied having knowledge of it at first.

When asked again, the offender provided the correct password. The Yahoo account is

listed to Marc Turner with his profile. The account reveals e-mails sent and received within

it. 

This officer requested the offender provide copies of all phone records, cable records, etc.

each month when he submitted the monthly report forms. The offender failed to provide

monthly supervision reports beginning in June of 2005 and failed to provide all the

requested records. After he had been admonished on various occasions, he produced

some of the requested paperwork on April 7, 2006. Through the cellular phone records the

offender provided on April 7, 2006, it was confirmed that the offender had accessed the

internet through his cell phone. According to a Yuba City Police Department Report

Number 06-011434, the offender exposed his penis to a three year old girl on May 6, 2006.

The offender has been charged with a violation of section 314.1 of the California Penal

Code - Lewd or Obscene Conduct in Sutter County Superior Court, Case Number CRF-06-

1140. 

 

Bail/Detention: The offender's prior record includes an April 27, 1997 conviction for

Indecent Exposure in Yuba County. Thereafter on November 23, 1998, he entered a plea

of guilty with a Deferred Entry of Judgment to Indecent Exposure in Yuba County Superior

Court. On May 31, 2000, the diversion was terminated. 

The underlying conduct in this case involves the offender sending child pornographic

images over the internet and sending threatening e-mail which included child pornographic

images to an unwanted recipient. Given the seriousness of the alleged conduct in this

petition, the conduct for which the offender is currently on supervised release for, and the

offender's prior criminal convictions, it is believed that he is a danger to the community and

should be detained.
