UNITED STATES OF AMERICA v. ERIC SCOTT RISLEY
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION CONCERNING PLEA OF GUILTY
The Defendant, ERIC SCOTT RISLEY, by consent, appeared before the undersigned Magistrate Judge on November 15, 2019, pursuant to Rule 11 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, and has entered a plea of guilty to Count ONE of the Indictment, charging a violation of Title 18, United States Code, Section 922(g)(1), felon in possession of a firearm.
After cautioning and examining the Defendant under oath concerning each of the subjects mentioned in Rule 11, the undersigned has determined that the guilty plea was knowledgeable and voluntary and that the offense charged is supported by an independent basis in fact as to each of the essential elements of such offense. The undersigned Magistrate Judge therefore recommends that the plea of guilty be accepted and that the Defendant, ERIC SCOTT RISLEY, be adjudged guilty and have sentence imposed accordingly.
DONE and ORDERED this 15 day of November 2019.
