    600 F. Supp. 2d 327 (D.P.R. 2009)   Cited 19 times
    Noting that an offense that triggers the presumption of detention supports a finding that the offense is serious for the purposes of application of the first factor, the nature and circumstances of the offense involved

    When a magistrate judge's pretrial detention order is contested, a district court considers the matter de novo under the guidelines set forth by 18 U.S.C. § 3142. See United States v. Alonso, 832 F.Supp. 503, 504 (D.P.R. 1993). A court may reconsider a detention order at any time prior to trial if the judicial officer finds there to be information previously unavailable and finds that the new information bears on the determination of flight risk and danger to society.
