STEARNS, D.J.   
WHEREAS, on September 13, 2021, the United States Attorney for the District of 
Massachusetts filed a two-count Information charging defendant Chynna Savath (the 
“Defendant”) with Wire Fraud, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1343 (Counts One and Two);  
WHEREAS, the Information also included a Forfeiture Allegation, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 
§ 981(a)(1)(C) and 28 U.S.C. § 2461(c), which provided notice that the United States intended to 
seek the forfeiture, upon conviction of the Defendant of one or more of the offenses alleged in 
Counts One and Two, of any property, real or personal, which constitutes or is derived from 
proceeds traceable to the offenses. The property to be forfeited included, but was not limited to, 
the following: 
(a) 
$29,646, to be entered in the form of an Order of Forfeiture (Money Judgment); 
 
WHEREAS, the Information further provided that, if any of the above-described forfeitable 
property, as a result of any act or omission by the Defendant, (a) cannot be located upon the 
exercise of due diligence; (b) has been transferred or sold to, or deposited with, a third party; (c)

value; or (e) has been commingled with other property which cannot be divided without difficulty, 
the United States is entitled to seek forfeiture of any other property of the Defendant, up to the 
value of such assets, pursuant to 21 U.S.C. § 853(p), as incorporated by 28 U.S.C § 2461(c); 
WHEREAS, on January 20, 2022, the Defendant waived indictment and pleaded guilty to 
a two-count Information charging Wire Fraud, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1343 (Counts One and 
Two), pursuant to an updated, written plea agreement the Defendant signed on September 8, 
2021; 
WHEREAS, in Section 7 of the plea agreement, the Defendant agreed to forfeit to the 
United States $29,646 in United States currency on the grounds that such amount equals the 
proceeds the Defendant obtained as a result of the offense to which she pled guilty; 
WHEREAS, since the initial plea agreement was signed, the government has learned of 
additional proceeds the Defendant obtained as a result of the scheme to defraud, and the 
Defendant agrees that the amount of proceeds the Defendant obtained is equal to $34,391;  
WHEREAS, based on the Defendant’s admissions in the written plea agreement and her 
guilty plea, the United States is entitled to an Order of Forfeiture consisting of a personal money 
judgment against the Defendant in the amount of $34,391 in United States currency, pursuant to 
18 U.S.C. § 981(a)(1)(C) and 28 U.S.C § 2461(c);  
WHEREAS, the $34,391 in United States currency constitutes proceeds that the 
Defendant obtained as a result of violations of 18 U.S.C. § 1343; and 
WHEREAS, Rule 32.2(c)(1) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure provides that 
Ano ancillary proceeding is required to the extent that the forfeiture consists of a money 
judgment.”
