UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff, v. ERIC BRUNO-JOAQUIN, Defendant.
DETENTION ORDER
CPAULA L. MCCANDLIS, United States Magistrate Judge
The Court, having conducted a detention hearing pursuant to Title 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 the defendant can meet will reasonably assure the appearance of the defendant as required and the safety of any other person and the community.
FINDINGS OF FACT AND STATEMENT OF REASONS FOR DETENTION
(1) Defendant has been charged by Counts 1,3, and 5: Bringing an Alien into United States at Place Other a Designated Port of Entry, Private Financial Gain and Counts 2, 4, and 6: Illegal Transportation of an Alien, Private Financial Gain. The defendant is a risk of nonappearance as he is a citizen of Mexico with strong family ties to Mexico and lacks ties to the United States (no release address in the United States). The defendant is a risk of danger based on the nature of the instant offense. The defendant through his attorney made no argument as to release, lodged no objections to the contents of the United States Probation and Pretrial report, and stipulated to detention.
It is therefore ORDERED:
(1) Defendant shall be detained pending trial and committed to the custody of the Attorney General for confinement in a correctional 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 correctional 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
(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.
