Opinion
Case No. 10-CR-00210-REB
05-02-2013
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff, v. SHANE LEE ALLEN, Defendant.
FINDINGS OF FACT, CONCLUSIONS OF LAW and REASONS
FOR ORDER OF DETENTION
This matter comes before the court on May 2, 2013, for preliminary hearing on the Petition to Revoke Supervised Release and Detention Hearing. The defendant waived his preliminary hearing on the Petition to Revoke Supervised Release. The court has further taken judicial notice of the court's file and has considered applicable Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure. The court now being fully informed makes the following findings of fact, conclusions of law and order. .
As to the issue of probable cause, I find probable cause has been established that the defendant has violated his supervised release as alleged in the Petition to Revoke Supervised Release based upon defendant's waiver of preliminary hearing.
Under Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 32.1, the court "may release or detain the [defendant] under 18 U.S.C. § 3143(a) pending further proceedings. The burden of establishing that the person will not flee or pose a danger to any other person or to the community rests with the [defendant]." Here, the defendant has not sustained his burden of establishing that he will not flee or fail to appear at future proceedings.
Under the circumstances, I find that no condition or combination of conditions of release will reasonably assure the appearance of the defendant. Accordingly, I order the defendant detained without bond.
BY THE COURT
