This matter is before the Court on the magistrate judge's Findings and Recommendation, Filing 107, recommending that the Court accept Defendant's plea of guilty. There are no objections to the Findings and Recommendation. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C) and NECrimR 11.2(d), the Court has conducted a de novo review of the record and adopts the Findings and Recommendation of the magistrate judge.

3. The Court defers acceptance of any plea agreement until it has reviewed the presentence report, pursuant to NECrimR 11.2(d); and
4. This case shall proceed to sentencing.
