Letter from Jose Santeiro — No. 0:21-cr-60020 (Dkt. 888, S.D. Fla.)

Summary

Jose Santeiro, a defendant in Case No. 0:21-cr-60020 in the Southern District of Florida writing from FCI Miami, sent Judge William P. Dimitrouleas a June 2024 letter with a copy of a May 28, 2024 request. Santeiro had asked to be self-employed as a commercial fisherman, and the court denied that request on October 3, 2023 as premature, without prejudice to renewal. The renewed request answers both grounds: it describes the fishing hours and distances from shore, and says probation has visited the home and halfway house and home confinement have been approved. The letter adds that the work requires buying a pickup truck, an ice machine and coolers.

Dear Judge Dimitrouleas,

I previously requested permission to be self-employed as a commercial fisherman. It
was denied on October 3, 2023.

The judge's order says "The request is denied as premature, without prejudice to later
being renewed."

The government responded, "The government does not dispute that the request in his
motion could be granted in the future, however, SANTEIRO'S motion is vague”.

My new request that I mailed to your office on May 28, 2024 and am re-sending
along with this letter, will answer these questions.

Respectfully,
Jose Santeiro

"5 Re:Case number 0:21CR-60020-WPD(5), USM#10577-509,
Dear Judge Dimitrouleas,

I requested permission to be self-employed as a commercial fisherman on Oct of
2023. It was-denied for two reasons; 1-"not enough. detail, too vague”, and 2-
"premature, too soon”. [ am requesting again. 1- details-we leave the docks just after
oe sunrise and are always back on land no later than’ 3pm. 90% of our fishing is done — .
ae Ss. AWithinronemile-from shore, the other-10% is‘between I to 3 miles offshore. Wecan =~ ~~“ 7 Ot
~ only go out when the seas are 3ft or less, which is no more than 10 knots of wind. The
_. . days that the wind prohibits us from going out are used to sell our catch, get fuel, and
~~ xepair gear. 2~premature - the probation has gone to my house. I have been, approved -
_ for halfway house and home confinement. I will be transferred soon. I will need time
‘to purchase a pickup truck, ice machine and several large coolers.
- In reentry we are taught that to succeed we need to plan ahead,.set goals, and take the
__ steps.to achieve those goals. I simply want/need to work and this is the only thing that
Tam experienced and. licensed in, This is what:I worked at ‘while under supervised
.release, both pretiial and post conviction. This can be verified by my previous
Probation officer - Jimmy Navarro.

Respectfully,
. — Jose Santeiro
