JUDGMENT AND PROB/ COMM ORDER
The Court asked whether there was any reason why judgment should not be pronounced. Because no sufficient cause to the contrary was shown, or appeared to the Court, the Court adjudged the defendant guilty as charged and convicted and ordered that: Pursuant to the Sentencing Reform Act of 1984, it is the judgment of the Court that the defendant is hereby committed to the custody of the Bureau of Prisons to be imprisoned for a term of:
1 month on counts 1, 2 and 4 and 7 years on count 5 in CR-07-404. 25 years on count 2 in CR-07-725-RHW. Sentence to be served consecutively. TOTAL Sentence: 32 years.
It is ordered that the defendant shall pay to the United States a special assessment of $500, which is due immediately.
Pursuant to Guideline Section 5E 1.2(a), all fines are waived as the Court finds the defendant has established that he is unable to pay and is not likely to become able to pay any fine.
Upon release from imprisonment, the defendant shall be placed on supervised release for a term of five (5) years under the following terms and conditions:
1. The defendant shall comply with the rules and regulations of the U. S. Probation Office and General Order 05-02;
2. The defendant shall not commit any violation of local, state or federal law or ordinance.
3. The defendant shall refrain from any unlawful use of a controlled substance. The defendant shall submit to one drug test within 15 days of release from imprisonment and at least two periodic drug tests thereafter, not to exceed eight tests per month, as directed by the Probation Officer;
4. You shall submit your person, residence, office, or vehicle to a search, conducted by a probation officer, at a sensible time and manner, based upon reasonable suspicion of contraband or evidence of violation of a condition of supervision. Failure to submit to search may be grounds for revocation. You shall warn persons with whom you share a residence that the premises may be subject to search.
5. The defendant shall participate in an outpatient substance abuse treatment and counseling program that includes urinalysis, breath, and/or sweat patch testing, as directed by the Probation Officer. The
defendant shall abstain from using illicit drugs and alcohol, and abusing prescription medications during the period of supervision;
6. During the course of supervision, the Probation Officer, with the agreement of the defendant and defense counsel, may place the defendant in a residential drug treatment program approved by the United States Probation Office for treatment of narcotic addiction or drug dependency, which may include counseling and testing, to determine if the defendant has reverted to the use of drugs, and the defendant shall reside in the treatment program until discharged by the Program Director and Probation Officer;
7. As directed by the Probation Officer, the defendant shall pay all or part of the costs of treating the defendant's drug and alcohol dependency to the aftercare contractor during the period of community supervision, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3672. The defendant shall provide payment and proof of payment as directed by the Probation Officer;
8. During the period of community supervision the defendant shall pay the special assessment and restitution in accordance with this judgment's orders pertaining to such payment;
9. The defendant shall cooperate in the collection of a DNA sample from the defendant; and
10. When not employed at least part-time (20 hours minimum) or attending an educational or vocational program, the defendant shall perform 20 hours of community service per week as directed by the Probation Officer. This requirement will commence within 30 days of placement on supervision;
11. The defendant shall apply monies in excess of $500 received from income tax refunds to the outstanding court-ordered financial obligation. In addition, the defendant shall apply all monies received from lottery winnings, inheritance, judgments and any anticipated or unexpected financial gains to the outstanding court-ordered financial obligation;
12. The defendant shall participate in mental health treatment, which may include evaluation and counseling, until discharged from the treatment by the treatment provider, with the approval of the Probation Officer.
The Court also recommends defendant be given the opportunity to participate in the 500 hour drug treatment program.
The Court dismisses all remaining counts.
IT IS ORDERED that the defendant shall pay restitution in the total amount of $52,485 to victims as set forth in a separate victim list prepared by the probation office which this Court adopts and which reflects the Court's determination of the amount of restitution due to each victim. The victim list, which shall be forwarded to the fiscal section of the clerk's office, shall remain confidential to protect the privacy interests of the victims." The defendant shall make monthly payments in the amount of $25 per month upon release of imprisonment.
Restitution shall be joint and several with co-defendants D. Kelly and M. Hackney.
In addition to the special conditions of supervision imposed above, it is hereby ordered that the Standard Conditions of Probation and Supervised Release within this judgment be imposed. The Court may change the conditions of supervision, reduce or extend the period of supervision, and at any time during the supervision period or within the maximum period permitted by law, may issue a warrant and revoke supervision for a violation occurring during the supervision period.
It is ordered that the Clerk deliver a copy of this Judgment and Probation/Commitment Order to the U.S. Marshal or other qualified officer.
