REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS

MICHAEL R. MERZ, Magistrate Judge.

The above-captioned action was referred to the undersigned under Fed. R. Crim. P. 59 for change of plea proceedings. Defendant orally consented to conduct of this proceeding before the United States Magistrate Judge.

The undersigned examined Defendant under oath as to his understanding of the Plea Agreement and the effect of entering a plea pursuant to that Agreement. Having conducted the colloquy, the Magistrate Judge is persuaded the Defendant understands the rights waived by entering a guilty plea and is competent to do so. The Magistrate Judge also concludes that execution of the Plea Agreement, which was acknowledged in open court, is Defendant=s voluntary, knowing, and intelligent act. It is therefore respectfully recommended that the Court accept the Plea Agreement.

Defendant, having executed the Plea Agreement, tendered a plea of guilty to the offense charged in Count Two of the Indictment. The Magistrate Judge concludes the guilty plea is knowing, intelligent, and voluntary and that the Statement of Facts made a part of the Plea Agreement, whose truth Defendant acknowledged, provides a sufficient basis for a finding of guilt. It is therefore respectfully recommended that the guilty plea be accepted and Defendant be found guilty as charged as charged in Count Two of the Indictment.

Anticipating the District Court's adoption of this Report and Recommendations, the Magistrate Judge referred the Defendant for a pre-sentence investigation continued his pretrial detention.
