Case No. 17MJ4744-NLS
12-20-2017
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff, v. ALEXIS OCEGUEDA (1), Defendant
FINDINGS OF FACT AND ORDER RE WAIVER OF DETENTION PENDING TRIAL
In accordance with the Bail Reform Act of 1984, 18 U.S.C. §3142(f), a detention hearing was scheduled for DECEMBER 19, 2017, to determine whether ALEXIS OCEGUEDA (the "Defendant") shall be held in custody without bail pending trial and, if convicted, sentencing in the above-captioned matter.
At the hearing on DECEMBER 19, 2017, the Defendant knowingly and voluntarily waived all rights, on the record and through counsel, to the setting of bail and the detention hearing. Based on that waiver, the Court orders that Defendant be detained pending trial because he is a serious flight risk and, if convicted, sentencing in these matters, without prejudice or waiver of the Defendant's right to later apply for bail and conditions of release, and without prejudice or waiver of the right of the United States to seek detention in the event of an application by Defendant for such relief.
ORDER
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Defendant be detained pending trial and, if convicted, sentencing in these matters.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Defendant be committed to the custody of the Attorney General or their designated representative for confinement in a corrections facility separate, to the extent practicable, from persons awaiting or service sentence or being held pending appeal. The Defendant shall be afforded reasonable opportunity for private consultation with counsel.
While in custody, upon order of a court of the United States or upon the request of an attorney for the United States, the person in charge of the correctional facility shall deliver the Defendant to the United States Marshal for the purpose of an appearance in connection with a court proceeding or any other appearance stipulated by defense and government counsel.
This order is made without prejudice to modification by this Court and without prejudice to the Defendant's exercise of the right to bail and a detention hearing at a future date.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
