REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION

TIMOTHY P. GREELEY, Magistrate Judge.

Pursuant to W.D. MICH. L.CR.R. 11.1, I conducted a plea hearing in the captioned case on December 21, 2015, after receiving the written consent of defendant and all counsel. At the hearing, defendant Tyler John Lafond entered a plea of guilty to Count 1, charging defendant with Aggravated Sexual Abuse of a Child Under 12 years in violation of 18:2241(c), 18:2246(2)(C), 18:1151, 18:1152. On the basis of the record made at the hearing, I find that defendant is fully capable and competent to enter an informed plea; that the plea is made knowingly and with full understanding of each of the rights waived by defendant; that it is made voluntarily and free from any force, threats, or promises; that the defendant understands the nature of the charge and penalties provided by law; and that the plea has a sufficient basis in fact.

I therefore recommend that defendant's plea of guilty to Count 1 be accepted, that the court adjudicate defendant guilty. It is further recommended that defendant remain detained pending sentencing. Acceptance of the plea, adjudication of guilt, determination of defendant's status pending sentencing, and imposition of sentence are specifically reserved for the district judge.

NOTICE TO PARTIES

Any application for review must be in writing, must specify the portions of the findings or proceedings objected to, and must be filed and served no later than fourteen days after the plea hearing.
