ACCORDINGLY, based on the foregoing, the Court hereby ORDERS that any and all 
interest of the defendant, MALIK BRECKENRIDGE, in the property listed above be and the 
same hereby is FORFEITED to the United States pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §§ 981 and 982, 28 U.S.C. 
§ 2461(c) and Rule 32.2(a) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure.   
WHEREAS, Fed. R. Crim. P. 32.2(c)(1) provides that “no ancillary proceeding is required 
to the extent the forfeiture consists of a money judgment.” 
Pursuant to Fed. R. Crim. P. 32.2(b)(3), upon entry of this order, the United States 
Attorney’s Office is authorized to conduct any discovery needed to identify, locate, or dispose of 
the property, including depositions, interrogatories, and requests for production of documents, 
and to issue subpoenas pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 45. 
 
A forfeiture money judgment shall be included in the defendant’s sentence, and the United 
States may take steps to collect the judgment from any property of the defendant, provided, the 
value of any forfeited specific assets shall be credited toward satisfaction of this money judgment 
upon liquidation.  
 
The parties stipulate and agree that the aforementioned asset(s) constitute property derived 
from or traceable to proceeds of defendant’s crime(s) herein or property used in any manner to 
facilitate the commission of such offense(s) and are therefore subject to forfeiture pursuant to 18 
U.S.C. § 981 and 28 U.S.C. § 2461(c). The defendant hereby waives the requirements of Fed. R. 
Crim. P. 32.2 and 43(a) regarding notice of the forfeiture in the charging instrument, 
announcement of the forfeiture at sentencing, and incorporation of the forfeiture in the judgment 
against defendant. If the defendant has previously submitted a claim in response to an 
administrative forfeiture proceeding regarding any of this property, defendant hereby withdraws

that claim. If defendant has not previously submitted such a claim, defendant hereby waives all 
right to do so. 
This order shall become the final order of forfeiture upon judgment of the defendant, as 
provided by Fed. R. Crim. P. 32.2(c)(2), and the United States shall have clear title to the property, 
and shall dispose of the property according to law.

Sergeant Brad S. Burner, West Virginia State Police, Bureau of Criminal Investigations, Post
