Case No.: 05-193M

ORDER REVOKING RELEASE

AND ORDERING DETENTION

The Pretrial Services Office and the United States have presented information indicating

that defendant has violated the conditions of pretrial supervised release. 

Defendant made his initial appearance before the undersigned Magistrate Judge on

April 25, 2005, after being arrested and charged with five (5) counts of bank robbery. The

defendant was advised of his rights and counsel was appointed. The government moved for

detention and a hearing on this matter was set for April 28, 2005.

Defendant appeared before the undersigned on April 28, 2005, as scheduled. The

government withdrew its motion for detention and the government and defendant asked that

defendant first be released to a drug-treatment center, and then a halfway house along with

special conditions to be imposed. Defendant was remanded to custody until such time as space

and facilities were available for his treatment at Ollala Treatment Center.

ORDER REVOKING RELEASE

AND ORDERING DETENTION

PAGE 2

On July 11, 2005, a warrant for arrest was issued for defendant because of evidence

submitted indicating he had violated the terms of release. Specifically, defendant was charged

with the following violations:

1. Use of heroin and cocaine on or about July 7, 2005, in violation of the standard

condition of release that he not use, consume, or possess any controlled substances, including

medication, unless prescribed by a physician; and

2. Consuming alcoholic beverages on or about July 7, 2005, in violation of the

special bond condition that he not use, consume, or possess alcohol, or any product containing

alcohol, including medication, unless prescribed by a physician.

After hearing from the parties, the Court finds it necessary and appropriate to revoke the

former bond and orders the defendant to be detained. The Court FINDS:

1. There are no conditions or combination of conditions which will assure that

defendant will not be a danger to the community if released again;

2. Defendant is unlikely to abide by any condition or combination of conditions set

by the Court.

It is therefore ORDERED, that defendant’s bond is REVOKED, and that:

1. Defendant shall be detained pending the evidentiary hearing in this matter and

committed to the custody of the Attorney General for confinement in a correction

facility separate, to the extent practicable, from persons awaiting or serving

sentences or being held in custody pending appeal;

2. Defendant shall be afforded reasonable opportunity for private consultation with

counsel;

3. On order of a court of the United States or on request of an attorney for the

Government, the person in charge of the corrections facility in which defendant

is confined shall deliver the defendant to a United States Marshal for the purpose

of an appearance in connection with a court proceeding; and
