Opinion
JENNIFER C. NOBLE, ESQ., CSBN 256952 WISEMAN LAW GROUP, P.C. Attorney for Defendant SHARON KING.
STIPULATION AND ORDER TO MODIFY DEFENDANT'S CONDITIONS OF PRE-TRIAL RELEASE
CAROLYN K. DELANEY, Magistrate Judge.
IT IS HEREBY stipulated between the United States of America through its undersigned counsel, Kyle Reardon, Assistant United States Attorney and Jennifer C. Noble, attorney for defendant Sharon King, that the conditions of Ms. King's pre-trial release be modified so as to allow Ms. King to be away from her residence during business hours as detailed below.
Ms. King was arraigned on September 19, 2013, with violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1591(a)(1) 18 U.S.C. Sex Trafficking of a minor and 18 U.S.C. § 1591(a)(2) Participating in a Sex Trafficking Venture. The Bail Reform Act was amended in 2006 by the Adam Walsh Act, which mandates additional conditions of release for defendants charged with certain crimes, including violations of 18 U.S.C. § 1591. The Act requires electronic monitoring of a defendant released on pre-trial release, as well as the conditions set forth in 18 U.S.C. § 3142(c)(1)(B)(iv)-(viii).
Ms. King's release was conditioned on several requirements, including Condition No. 13 - Home Detention, restricting Ms. King to her residence except for pre-approved activities.
The parties stipulate and agree that Condition No. 13 should be modified to read as follows:
13. CURFEW: You are restricted to your residence every day or as adjusted by the pretrial services officer for medical, religious services, employment or court-ordered obligations.
This change will permit her a window of time each day, at the Pre-Trial Services officer's discretion, for the above-stated reasons, without first seeking permission. The modification would be in addition to her regular Sunday curfew, which permits her to be away from home from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. to attend church services.
The defendant understands that all other Conditions of Release remain in force. The Pre-Trial Services office advises that Ms. King is in compliance with all conditions of pre-trial release.
IT IS SO STIPULATED.
ORDER
GOOD CAUSE APPEARING, it is hereby ordered that the Special Conditions of Pre-Trial Release be modified as follows:
Condition No. 13 is modified to read:
CURFEW: You are restricted to your residence every day or as adjusted by the pretrial services officer for medical, religious services, employment or court-ordered obligations.
This is in addition to her regular Sunday curfew, which permits her to be away from home from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. to attend church services.
All other conditions of pre-trial release remain in force.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
