UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

vs. Criminal Action 2:11-CR-199

Judge Graham

ROBERTO OSORIO-ANTONIO

REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION

The United States of America and defendant Roberto OsorioAntonio entered into a plea agreement whereby defendant agreed to enter

a plea of guilty to an information charging him with unlawful reentry of

a deported alien in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a). On August 17, 2011

defendant, accompanied by his counsel and with the assistance of an

interpreter, appeared for an arraignment. Defendant consented, pursuant

to 28 U.S.C. §636(b)(3), to enter a guilty plea before a Magistrate

Judge. See United States v. Cukaj, 2001 WL 1587410 at *1 (6 Cir. 2001) th

[Magistrate Judge may accept a guilty plea with the express consent of

the defendant and where no objection to the report and recommendation is

filed]; United States v. Torres, 258 F.3d 791, 796 (8 Cir. 2001); United th

States v. Dees, 125 F.3d 261, 263-69 (5 Cir. 1997); United States v. th

Ciapponi, 77 F.3d 1247, 1251 (10 Cir. 1996). Defendant also waived his th

right to an indictment in open court and after being advised of the

nature of the charge and of his rights. See F.R. Crim. P. 7(b). 

During the plea proceeding, the undersigned observed the

appearance and responsiveness of defendant in answering questions. Based

on that observation, the undersigned is satisfied that, at the time he

entered his guilty plea, defendant was in full possession of his

faculties, was not suffering from any apparent physical or mental

illness, and was not under the influence of narcotics or alcohol.

Prior to accepting defendant’s plea, the undersigned addressed

defendant personally and in open court and determined his competence to

plead. Based on the observations of the undersigned, defendant

understands the nature and meaning of the charge returned in the

Information and the consequences of the plea. Defendant was also

addressed personally and in open court and advised of each of the rights

referred to in Rule 11 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure. 

Having engaged in the colloquy required by Rule 11, the Court

concludes that defendant’s plea is voluntary. Defendant acknowledged

that the plea agreement signed by him, his attorney and the attorney for

the United States and filed on August 10, 2011, represents the only

promises made by anyone regarding the charge in the Information. 

Defendant was advised that the District Judge may accept or reject the

plea agreement and that, even if the Court refuses to accept any

provision of the plea agreement not binding on the Court, defendant may

nevertheless not withdraw his guilty plea. 

Defendant confirmed the accuracy of the material aspects of

the statement of facts supporting the charge. He confirmed that he is

pleading guilty to Count One of the Information because he is in fact

guilty of the offense charged in the Information. The Court concludes

that there is a factual basis for the plea. 

The Court concludes that defendant’s plea of guilty to Count

One of the Information is knowingly and voluntarily made with

understanding of the nature and meaning of the charge and of the

consequences of the plea. 

It is therefore RECOMMENDED that defendant Roberto OsorioAntonio’s guilty plea to Count One of the Information be accepted.

Decision on acceptance or rejection of the plea agreement was deferred

for consideration by the District Judge after the preparation of a

presentence investigation report.
