UNITED STATES OF AMERICA v. JEROME ADAM WHITMIRE

SUSAN K. LEE UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

JEROME ADAM WHITMIRE ("Supervised Releasee") appeared for a hearing before the undersigned on April 16, 2015, in accordance with Rule 32.1 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure on the Amended Petition for a Warrant or Summons for an Offender Under Supervision ("Amended Petition"). Those present for the hearing included:

(1) An Assistant United States Attorney for the Government;
(2) Supervised Releasee; and
(3) An Attorney with Federal Defender Services of Eastern Tennessee ("FDS") for the Supervised Releasee.

After being sworn in due form of law, Supervised Releasee was informed or reminded of his privilege against self-incrimination accorded him under the Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution. It was determined that Supervised Releasee wished to be represented by an attorney and he qualified for appointed counsel. FDS was appointed to represent Supervised Releasee. It was also determined that Supervised Releasee had been provided with and reviewed with counsel a copy of the Amended Petition.

The Government moved that Supervised Releasee be detained without bail pending his revocation hearing before U.S. District Judge Curtis L. Collier. Supervised Releasee waived his right to a preliminary hearing and a detention hearing.

Findings

Based upon the Amended Petition and waiver of preliminary hearing, the Court finds there is probable cause to believe Supervised Releasee has committed violations of his condition of supervised release as alleged in the Amended Petition.

Conclusions

It is ORDERED:

(1) Supervised Releasee shall appear for a revocation hearing before U.S. District Judge Collier.

(2) The Government's motion that supervised releasee be DETAINED WITHOUT BAIL pending his revocation hearing before Judge Collier is GRANTED.



(3) The U.S. Marshal shall transport Supervised Releasee to a revocation hearing before Judge Collier on Thursday, June 11, 2015 at 9:00 a.m. [EASTERN].

SO ORDERED.
