MALCOLM J. HOWARD, Senior District Judge.
COMES NOW Melissa K. Gonigam, U.S. Probation Officer of the court, presenting a petition for modification of the Judgment and Commitment Order of Keion Shyiem Everett, who, upon an earlier plea of guilty to Distribution of a Quantity of Cocaine Base (Crack), in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1) and 21 U.S.C. § 841(b)(1)(C), was sentenced by the Honorable Malcolm J. Howard, Senior U.S. District Judge, on November 7, 2017, to the custody of the Bureau of Prisons for a term of 21 months. It was further ordered that upon release from imprisonment the defendant be placed on supervised release for a period of 3 years.
Keion Shyiem Everett was released from custody on October 31, 2018, at which time the term of supervised release commenced.
On November 6, 2018, the defendant submitted to a urinalysis screening, and admitted to using marijuana and opiates on November 1, 2018. It is noted that at the time of sentencing on November 7, 2017, Everett was ordered to participate in the DROPS Program; however, due to Everett being released from Bureau of Prisons custody less than one week ago, the undersigned probation officer believes he would be better served by seeking treatment and employment than serving additional time in custody. At this time, it is respectfully recommended that the DROPS Sanction be removed from his conditions and the Probation Office be permitted to address these issues through other means. Everett has been referred for a substance abuse assessment and placed in the Surprise Urinalysis Program. He understands that continued use of controlled substances will result in further sanctions by the court.
Except as herein modified, the judgment shall remain in full force and effect.
Considered and ordered this
