Page 2 of 5 
The drug testing condition mandated by statute is suspended based on the Court’s determination that the defendant 
poses a low risk of future substance abuse. 
 
It is further ordered that the defendant surrender himself to the institution designated by the Bureau of Prisons at or before 
12 noon, on February 16, 2023.  In the absence of such designation, the defendant shall report on or before the same date 
and time, to the United States Marshal located at the First Street U.S. Courthouse 350 W. First Street, Suite 3001, Los 
Angeles, CA 90012.  Bond shall be exonerated upon surrender. 
 
The Court recommends that the defendant be placed in a medical facility within the Bureau of Prisons to treat his 
medical conditions, if possible the facility shall be located in Southern California so that he may maintain contact with 
family during his custodial period.   
 
It is further recommended that the Bureau of Prisons be prepared to address the defendant’s medical condition that 
requires non-formulary drugs, Botulinum toxin injection and Artane (Trihexyphenidyl). 
 
The Court advised the defendant of his right to appeal. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
In addition to the special conditions of supervision imposed above, it is hereby ordered that the Standard Conditions of Probation and 
Supervised Release within this judgment be imposed.  The Court may change the conditions of supervision, reduce or extend the period of 
supervision, and at any time during the supervision period or within the maximum period permitted by law, may issue a warrant and revoke 
supervision for a violation occurring during the supervision period.

The defendant must notify the Court (through the Probation Office) and the United States Attorney of any material change in the 
defendant’s economic circumstances that might affect the defendant’s ability to pay a fine or restitution, as required by 18 U.S.C. § 3664(k). 
The Court may also accept such notification from the government or the victim, and may, on its own motion or that of a party or the victim, 
adjust the manner of payment of a fine or restitution under 18 U.S.C. § 3664(k). See also 18 U.S.C. § 3572(d)(3) and for probation 18 U.S.C.
