PETITIONING THE COURT
To incorporate the violation(s) contained in this petition in future proceedings with the violation(s) previously reported to the Court on 10/23/2020, 11/5/2020, 11/9/2022, and 11/9/2022.
On June 10, 2020, supervision commenced in this matter. On June 12, 2020, a supervision intake was completed. Mr. Lopez acknowledged an understanding of the conditions imposed by the Court.
The probation officer believes that the offender has violated the following condition(s) of supervision:
Violation Number
Nature of Noncompliance
9
Special Condition # 4 : You must abstain from the use of illegal controlled substances, and must submit to urinalysis and sweat patch testing, as directed by the supervising officer, but no more than 6 tests per month, in order to confirm continued abstinence from these substances. Supporting Evidence : It is alleged that Gabriel Lopez violated the terms of his supervised release, by consuming a controlled substance, cocaine, on or about October 27, 2022. On October 20, 2022, Mr. Lopez reported to the United States Probation Office. A sweat patch was applied to Mr. Lopez' arm for the purposes of testing of illicit substances. On October 27, 2022, the sweat patch was removed and submitted to the lab for testing. On November 14, 2022, the lab report was received and noted a positive presence for cocaine. The lab report also noted a positive presence for methamphetamine and amphetamine, however, that use was already addressed through the Sobriety Treatment and Education Program (STEP) session.
The U.S. Probation Office respectfully recommends the Court to incorporate the violation(s) contained in this petition in future proceedings with the violation(s) previously reported to the Court.
