The Honorable Aleta A. Trauger
U.S. District Judge
On April 20, 2011, Emily Carol Bradley appeared before the Honorable E. Clifton Knowles, U.S. Magistrate Judge, for a Detention Hearing related to her being charged with Conspiracy to Possess with Intent to Distribute Oxycodone, Hydrocodone, and Aprazalom, in violation of Title 21 United States Code § 846. At that hearing, the parties announced an agreement had been reached to release defendant Bradley on bond with pretrial supervision. The Court adopted the parties' recommendation and released the defendant on bond with the attached special conditions of pretrial services supervision. On March 27, 2012, a bond violation report was forwarded to the Court advising of several technical violations with recommendation for no further action at that time. The Court adopted the recommendation on March 27, 2012 (Document No. 795). On May 21, 2012, a second bond violation report was forwarded advising of use of a narcotic drug (Oxycodone) without a valid prescription. Based on the recommendation of the defendant's therapist, Pretrial Services asked the Court to take no further action at that time. The Court adopted the recommendation on May 23, 2012 (Document No. 938). On June 4, 2012, a third petition was submitted to the Court requesting defendant Bradley be allowed to complete an inpatient treatment program before her sentencing then scheduled for August 6, 2012. This recommendation was based upon discussions with defense counsel who advised his client recognized the need for treatment and her willingness to pursue same. The Court adopted the recommendation on June 6, 2012 (Document No. 948).
VIOLATIONS:
Violation No. 1: Use of Non-prescribed Controlled Substances. On Monday, December 3, 2012, defendant Bradley reported to Cumberland Mountain Mental Health Center located in Crossville, Tennessee, to submit to a randomly scheduled drug test. Prior to submitting a specimen for testing, Ms. Bradley was asked if she had used any illicit substances or any medications not prescribed to her since her last contact with U.S. Probation and Pretrial Services. She responded, "None." The defendant then submitted a specimen for testing. That sample was subsequently analyzed at Alere Laboratories, and was shown to be POSITIVE for Marijuana metabolite. Alere reported the positive finding to the U.S. Probation Office on December 15, 2012. Violation No. 2: Failure to Report for Randomly Scheduled Drug Test. According to attendance records maintained by Cumberland Mountain Mental Health Center, Crossville, Tennessee, defendant Bradley failed to report for a randomly scheduled drug test on the following date:
December 11, 2012Current Status of Case: Defendant Bradley is currently scheduled for sentencing on December 20, 2012, at 2:00 PM. Respectfully Petitioning the Court as Follows: In light of the pending sentencing currently scheduled for December 20, 2012, it is requested no action be taken, but that the Court consider this as a pattern of ongoing noncompliance with conditions of release when structuring any sentence deemed appropriate in this case.
