PRELIMINARY ORDER OF FORFEITURE

WHEREAS, the defendant, ANNA MARIE OMAR, appeared before this Court, with the
assistance of counsel on August 12, 2024, and pled guilty to Count Three of the Indictment,
which charged her with a violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1957 (engaging in monetary transactions in
property derived from specified unlawful activity);

Whereas, the Indictment also included a forfeiture allegation against the defendant
seeking a forfeiture money judgment in the amount of $23,410.60 in United States currency, more
or less, to the United States pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §§ 982(a)(1), 982(a)(2), 28 U.S.C. § 2461(c),
and Rule 32.2 of the Rules of Criminal Procedure;

WHEREAS, the defendant has consented to forfeit all of her right, title, and interest in the
forfeiture money judgment in the amount of $23,410.60 in United States currency, more or less
described above which constituted, or was derived from, any proceeds of, or facilitated the
commission of, violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1957 as set forth in the Indictment;

ACCORDINGLY, based on the defendant’s plea of guilty and finding that there is a nexus
between the property listed above and the offense to which the defendant has pled guilty, and that

the defendant had a possessory interest or other legal interest in the property, the Court hereby

Case 1:24-cr-00036 Document 35 Filed 09/12/24 Page 2 of 3 PagelD #: 99

ORDERS that any and all interest of the defendant, ANNA MARIE OMAR, in the property listed
above be and the same hereby is FORFEITED to the United States pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §§
982(a)(1), 982(a)(2), 28 U.S.C. § 2461(c), and Rule 32.2 of the 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
ULS.C. §§ 982(a)(1), 982(a)(2), 28 U.S.C. § 2461(c), and Rule 32.2 of the Rules of Criminal
Procedure. 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
Case 1:24-cr-00036 Document 35 _ Filed 09/12/24 Page 3 of 3 PagelD #: 100

submitted such a claim, defendant hereby waives all right to do so.

As to any specific assets, following the Court’s disposition of all timely petitions, a final
order of forfeiture shall be entered.

The Clerk is directed to send certified copies of this Order to counsel of record, to West
Virginia State Police, Drug Task Force, Sergeant, Brad Burner, P. O. Box 1011, Beckley, WV
