CAROL B. WHITEHURST, Magistrate Judge.
Pursuant to Title 28, United States Code, Section 636(b), and with the written and oral consent of the defendant, this matter has been referred by the District Court for administration of Guilty Plea, and Allocution under Rule 11 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure.
This cause came before the undersigned U. S. Magistrate Judge for a change of plea hearing and allocution of the defendant, Cody Lormand, on March 10, 2017. Defendant was present with his counsel Kay Karre' Gautreaux.
After said hearing, and for reasons orally assigned, it is the finding of the undersigned that the defendant is fully competent, that his plea of guilty is knowing and voluntary, and his guilty plea to Count Eight of the Indictment, is fully supported by a written factual basis for each of the essential elements of the offense.
Therefore the undersigned U.S. Magistrate Judge recommends that the District Court ACCEPT the guilty plea of the defendant, Cody Lormand, in accordance with the terms of the plea agreement filed in the record of these proceedings, and that Cody Lormand be finally adjudged guilty of the offense charged in Count Eight of the Indictment.
The defendant has waived his right to file an objection to the Report and Recommendation.
