                                        REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
                                         CONCERNING PLEA OF GUILTY

        STEVEN RIAD JALLOUL, by consent, under authority of United States v. Dees, 125 F.3d 261 (5th Cir. 1997),
has appeared before me pursuant to Fed. R. Crim.P. 11, and has entered a plea of guilty to Count 1 of the one-count
superseding Information filed July 19, 2021. After cautioning and examining STEVEN RIAD JALLOUL under oath
concerning each of the subjects mentioned in Rule 11, I determined that the guilty plea was knowledgeable and voluntary
and that the offense charged is supported by an independent basis in fact containing each of the essential elements of such
offense. I therefore recommend that the plea of guilty be accepted, and that STEVEN RIAD JALLOUL be adjudged guilty
of Engaging in Monetary Transactions in Property Derived from Specified Unlawful Activity, in violation of 18
U.S.C. § 1957 and have sentence imposed accordingly. After being found guilty of the offense by the district judge,

☐       The defendant is currently in custody and should be ordered to remain in custody.

☐       The defendant must be ordered detained pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3143(a)(1) unless the Court finds by clear and
        convincing evidence that the defendant is not likely to flee or pose a danger to any other person or the community
        if released.

        ☐       The Government does not oppose release.
        ☐       The defendant has been compliant with the current conditions of release.
        ☐       I find by clear and convincing evidence that the defendant is not likely to flee or pose a danger to any other
                person or the community if released and should therefore be released under § 3142(b) or (c).

        ☐       The Government opposes release.
        ☐       The defendant has not been compliant with the conditions of release.
        ☐       If the Court accepts this recommendation, this matter should be set for hearing upon motion of the
                Government.

☐       The defendant must be ordered detained pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3143(a)(2) unless (1)(a) the Court finds there is a
        substantial likelihood that a motion for acquittal or new trial will be granted, or (b) the Government has
        recommended that no sentence of imprisonment be imposed, or (c) exceptional circumstances are clearly shown
        under § 3145(c) why the defendant should not be detained, and (2) the Court finds by clear and convincing evidence
        that the defendant is not likely to flee or pose a danger to any other person or the community if released.

                                                                  UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE

service shall bar an aggrieved party from attacking such Report and Recommendation before the assigned United States
District Judge. 28 U.S.C. §636(b)(1)(B).
