REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS1
SHARON L. OVINGTON, Chief Magistrate Judge.
This case came on for hearing on January 20, 2016. The United States was represented by Assistant United States Attorney Brent Tabacchi, and Defendant Kathryn Elizabeth Williams was represented by Lawrence Joseph Greger.
The parties have entered into a plea agreement, which has been filed of record. The undersigned carefully inquired of Defendant regarding her understanding of the agreement as well as her competence to understand the agreement. Having fully inquired, the undersigned Judicial Officer finds that Defendant's tendered plea of guilty to Count One of the Information is knowing, intelligent and voluntary. Based on the statement of facts as set forth in the plea colloquy the undersigned finds that there is a sufficient factual basis for a finding of guilty as to Count One.
It is accordingly recommended that the Court accept the plea of guilty to Count One of the Information and find Defendant guilty as charged in such Count of Theft of Government Property (less than $1,000) in violation of 18 U.S.C. §641.
Pending the Court's acceptance of Defendant's plea, she has been referred to the Probation Department for a pre-sentence investigation.
