Supervision Shareek Colson
HONORABLE FREDERICK P. STAMP JR., UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE.
REPORT ON INDIVIDUAL UNDER SUPERVISION
HONORABLE SUSAN D. WIGENTON, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE.
NONCOMPLIANCE SUMMARY
The individual under supervision has not complied with the following condition(s) of supervision:
Violation Number Nature of Noncompliance
1 The individual under supervision has violated the special supervision condition which states 'The defendant shall participate in a program of testing and treatment for the use of alcohol or drugs, if so ordered by the Probation Officer.'
On January 19, 2022, the individual under supervision admitted to the probation officer he has been smoking marijuana. On that date the undersigned requested a urine sample from Colson, but he was unable to provide the same. Upon further questioning, Colson admitted smoking marijuana on a daily basis and signed an admission of drug use form.
U.S. Probation Officer Action:
Colson advised he was smoking marijuana to assist with back pain. He was verbally reprimanded and reminded that marijuana remains a federally illegal substance. The undersigned spoke at length with Colson regarding marijuana and his ability to cease its use. Colson contends he can refrain Shareek Colson from the use of marijuana without the assistance of a treatment program. Prior to this, Colson has not tested positive for the use of marijuana since supervision commenced. The probation officer recommends no Court action be taken at this time. Given his assertions, Colson will be afforded the opportunity to cease the use of marijuana. The undersigned will continue to test Colson for the use of substances, and should he continue to use marijuana, Colson will be referred to a substance use treatment program.
SUSAN M. SMALLEY, Chief U.S. Probation Officer.
