DETENTION ORDER

PAGE -2-

The Government filed a Motion for Detention; the defendant stipulates to

detention, however objects to the conclusion that he is not a U.S. Citizen.

FINDINGS OF FACT AND STATEMENT OF REASONS FOR DETENTION

(1) There is probable cause to believe the defendant committed the

conspiracy drug offense. The maximum penalty is in excess of ten years.

There is therefore a rebuttable presumption against the defendant’s

release based upon both dangerousness and flight risk, under Title 18

U.S.C. § 3142(e).

(2) Nothing in this record satisfactorily rebuts the presumption against

release for several reasons:

(a) The defendant presents a risk of nonappearance due to the

following: His ties to the Western District of Washington are

unknown/unverified; and BICE has filed a detainer;

(b) The defendant presents a risk of danger based on the nature of the

instant offense; 

(c) The defendant stipulates to detention.

(3) Based upon the foregoing information which is consistent with the

recommendation of U.S. Pre-trial Services, it appears that there is no

condition or combination of conditions that would reasonably assure

future Court appearances and/or the safety of other persons or the

community.

It is therefore ORDERED:

(l) The 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) The 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

the 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

(4) The clerk shall direct copies of this order to counsel for the United

States, to counsel for the defendant, to the United States Marshal, and to

the United States Pretrial Services Officer.

DATED this 17th day of June, 2006.
