ORDER ADOPTING REPORT & RECOMMENDATION
This criminal case was referred to United States Magistrate Judge James R. Knepp, II, with consent of the parties, to conduct a change of plea hearing. The Magistrate judge filed his Report and Recommendation (Doc. 8); no Objection has been filed.
This Court finds that the requirements of Federal Criminal Rule 11 have been satisfied. Defendant was properly afforded her rights under the United States Constitution; Defendant was correctly found to be competent, aware of the charges and consequences of conviction and of the waiver of her rights; and Defendant knowingly, intelligently and voluntarily consented to the Magistrate Judge and entered a guilty plea for which there was an adequate factual basis.
After a de novo review of the record and R&R, the Magistrate's findings are adopted, Defendant's guilty plea is accepted, and a finding of guilty is entered.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
