CASE NO.: C05-352-TSZ

DETENTION ORDER 

Offense charged:

False Statement; Visa Fraud; Identity Fraud

Date of Detention Hearing: October 28, 2005

The Court, having conducted a detention hearing pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3142(f), and

based upon the factual findings and statement of reasons for detention hereafter set forth, finds

that no condition or combination of conditions which defendant can meet will reasonably assure

the appearance of defendant as required and the safety of other persons and the community.

FINDINGS OF FACT AND STATEMENT OF REASONS FOR DETENTION

(1) Defendant is indicted for submitting a false application for a Social Security Card,

utilizing a false immigration visa form to obtain the social security card, and applying for a

Washington State identity card utilizing false information. An individual identified as her husband

has been charged in case number 05-354 with three counts of wire fraud, and similar charges of

making a false statement to obtain a social security card, visa fraud and identity fraud.

(2) The defendant is a native of South Korea. She admits to having entered the United

States illegally in 1989. She moved to the Seattle area from California one year ago. She is

alleged to have used multiple identifiers. Pretrial Services was not able to verify much of her

background information. An immigration detainer has been issued.

(3) Based on the immigration detainer, defendant does not contest detention at this

time.

(4) Defendant poses a risk of nonappearance based on her status as a citizen of South

Korea, some unverified background information, allegation of use of false identities, and uncertain

ties to this District. She poses a risk of danger due to the nature of the instant offense involving

identity fraud.

(5) There does not appear to be any condition or combination of conditions that will

reasonably assure the defendant’s appearance at future Court hearings while addressing the danger

to other persons or the community.

It is therefore ORDERED:

(1) Defendant shall be detained pending trial 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
