UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff, v. JAMES DOUGLAS COTHRAN, Defendant.
ORDER
Martin Reidinger, Chief United States District Judge
THIS MATTER is before the Court on the Defendant's Supplement to his Motion for Compassionate Release. [Doc. 41].
On February 2, 2022, the Court denied the Defendant's motion for compassionate release. [Doc. 40]. On February 7, 2022, the Court received the present letter, which purports to supplement the Defendant's motion by providing his education data transcript as well as information regarding other programs in which he has participated. [Doc. 41]. For the reasons previously stated, the Court finds that these additional facts do not constitute “extraordinary and compelling reasons” for the Defendant's release and that analysis of the relevant § 3553(a) factors continue to weigh in favor of his continued incarceration. Accordingly, the Supplement to the Defendant's Motion for Compassionate Release is denied.
IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED that the Defendant's Supplement to his Motion for Compassionate Release [Doc. 41] is DENIED.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
