REPORT ON OFFENDER UNDER SUPERVISION
HONORABLE BRIAN R. MARTINOTTI UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
NONCOMPLIANCE SUMMARY
The offender has not complied with the following condition(s) of supervision:
| Violation Number | Nature of Noncompliance |
| 1 | The individual under supervision has violated the mandatory supervision condition which states 'You must refrain from any unlawful use of a controlled substance.' |
| On July 7, 2021, the individual under supervision submitted a urine sample for testing. On August 21, 2021, the results of the urinalysis returned positive for the presence of marijuana from the national lab. Upon questioning, Westbrook admitted to using marijuana the week prior to the submission of his urine sample. |
U.S. Probation Officer Action:
Westbrook was informed marijuana remains a federally illegal substance. He was instructed to discontinue the use of marijuana and cautioned that any further use could result in treatment, sanctions, or other court intervention. Subsequent to his initial submission, Westbrook submitted another sample on August 9, 2021, which tested negative for all substances. At this time, no Court action is requested. The probation office will continue to monitor Westbrook's substance use, and should he continue to test positive for illicit substances; the Court will be notified, and he will be referred for substance abuse evaluation.
Respectfully submitted, SUSAN M. SMALLEY, Chief U.S. Probation Officer
