JUDGMENT AND PROB/ COMM ORDER
The Court asked whether there was any reason why judgment should not be pronounced. Because no sufficient cause to the contrary was shown, or appeared to the Court, the Court adjudged the defendant, RAFAEL JIMENEZ-RODRIGUEZ guilty as charged and convicted and ordered that: Pursuant to the Sentencing Reform Act of 1984, it is the judgment of the Court that the defendant is hereby committed to the custody of the Bureau of Prisons to be imprisoned for a term of: seventy-two (72) months. This term shall run consecutively to any undischarged term of imprisonment.
It is ordered that the defendant shall pay to the United States a special assessment of $100, which is due immediately. Any unpaid balance shall be due during the period of imprisonment, at the rate of not less than $25 per quarter, and pursuant to the Bureau of Prisons' Inmate Financial Responsibility Program.
Pursuant to section 5E1.2 (e) of the Guidelines, all fines are waived as it is found that the defendant does not have the ability to pay a fine and is not likely to become able to pay any fine.
Upon release from imprisonment, the defendant shall be placed on supervised release for a term of three years under the following terms and conditions:
1. The defendant shall comply with the rules and regulations of the U. S. Probation Office and General Order 05-02;
2. The defendant shall not commit any violation of federal, state or local law or ordinance;
3. The defendant shall refrain from any unlawful use of a controlled substance. The defendant shall submit to one drug test within 15 days of release from imprisonment and at least two periodic drug tests thereafter, not to exceed eight tests per month, as directed by the Probation Officer;
4. During the period of community supervision, the defendant shall pay the special assessment in accordance with this judgment's orders pertaining to such payment; 5. The defendant shall comply with the immigration rules and regulations of the United States, and if deported from this country, either voluntarily or involuntarily, not reenter the United States illegally. The defendant is not required to report to the Probation Office while residing outside of the United States; however, within 72 hours of release from any custody or any reentry to the United States during the period of Court-ordered supervision, the defendant shall report for instructions to the United States Probation Office, located at the United States Court House, 312 North Spring Street, Room 600, Los Angeles, California 90012; and 6. The defendant shall cooperate in the collection of a DNA sample from the defendant.
The Court recommends that Defendant Jimenez-Rodriguez be evaluated and treated immediately for his mental health condition and that he be released from solitary confinement if it is found to exacerbate his mental health condition. The BOP shall provide a status report regarding Defendant Jimenez-Rodriguez's mental health condition and the conditions of his confinement within 30 days from the date of this Judgment and every four months thereafter through November 2012. The Court also recommends that this defendant be assigned to a federal correctional facility in the Indianapolis area. The Statement of Reasons shall be provided to the United States Probation Office, Bureau of Prisons, and the U.S. Sentencing Commission. The Court authorizes the Probation Office to disclose the Presentence Report to the Bureau of Prisons and the U.S. Sentencing Commission. The Court informs the defendant of his right to appeal. In addition to the special conditions of supervision imposed above, it is hereby ordered that the Standard Conditions of Probation and Supervised Release within this judgment be imposed. The Court may change the conditions of supervision, reduce or extend the period of supervision, and at any time during the supervision period or within the maximum period permitted by law, may issue a warrant and revoke supervision for a violation occurring during the supervision period. It is ordered that the Clerk deliver a copy of this Judgment and Probation/Commitn'rent Order to the U.S. Marshal or other qualified officer.
