UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff, v. FRANCISCO LUIS RODRIGUEZ, Defendant.


DETENTION ORDER

MICHELLE L. PETERSON UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE

Offenses charged:

Mr. Rodriguez is charged with assault of a federal officer, 18 U.S.C. §§ 111(a)(1) and (b), and using a firearm during a crime of violence, 18 U.S.C. §§ 924(c)(1)(A)(i)-(iii). The Court held a detention hearing on December 14, 2021, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3142(f), and based upon the reasons for detention hereafter set forth, finds:

FINDINGS OF FACT AND STATEMENT OF REASONS FOR DETENTION

1. There is a rebuttable presumption of detention pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3142(e).
2. Mr. Rodriguez stipulated to detention.
3. Mr. Rodriguez poses a risk of nonappearance based on his conduct during the arrest for the instant offenses; nature of the pending charges; history of failure to appear;
and criminal activity while other charges are pending.
4. Mr. Rodriguez poses a risk of danger based on the nature of the instant offenses; a pattern of similar charges; and possession of a firearm.
5. Based on these findings, and for the reasons stated on the record, there does not appear to be any condition or combination of conditions that will reasonably assure Mr. Rodriguez's appearance at future court hearings while addressing the danger to other persons or the community.
6. Taken as a whole, the record does not effectively rebut the presumption that no condition or combination of conditions will reasonably assure the appearance of Mr. Rodriguez as required and the safety of the community.

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED:

(1) Mr. Rodriguez shall be detained pending trial, and committed to the custody of the Attorney General for confinement in a correction facility separate, to the extent practicable, from persons awaiting or serving sentences or being held in custody pending appeal;

(2) Mr. Rodriguez shall be afforded reasonable opportunity for private consultation with counsel;

(3) To the extent the U.S. Marshals Service determines safety concerns are not prohibitive, and in compliance with Harborview Hospital's COVID protocols, Mr. Rodriguez should be afforded the same visitations rights he would have at the Federal Detention Center;

(4) On order of a court of the United States or on request of an attorney for the government, the person in charge of the corrections facility in which Mr. Rodriguez is confined shall deliver him to a United States Marshal for the purpose of an appearance in connection with a court proceeding; and

(5) The Clerk shall direct copies of this Order to counsel for the United States, to counsel for Mr. Rodriquez, to the United States Marshal, and to the United States Pretrial Services Officer.
