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

either social security cards or visa documents under false identities.

(2) Defendant was not interviewed by Pretrial Services. He is a native and citizen of

Korea who is in the United States illegally. There is no additional information available regarding

his personal history, residence, family ties, ties to this District, income, financial assets, liabilities,

physical/mental health or controlled substance use, if any. The defendant is alleged to have four

complete sets of false identities which include Social Security numbers, immigration paperwork,

Korean passports and Washington State drivers licenses.

(3) An immigration detainer has been filed.

(4) The defendant does not contest detention.

(5) The defendant poses a risk of nonappearance due to his status as a native and

citizen of Korea who is in the United States illegally, the nature of the instant charges, association

with four sets of false identities and alias names, unknown background and immigration detainer.

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

reasonably assure the defendant’s appearance at future Court hearings.

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
