PETITIONING THE COURT
To issue a warrant.
On October 25, 2024, a probation intake was completed at the United States Probation Office with Mr.
Anishchenko. He signed a copy of his judgment acknowledging an understanding of the conditions imposed by the
Court.
The probation officer believes that the offender has violated the following condition(s) of supervision:
Violation Number Nature of Noncompliance
1 Special Condition # 6: You must not enter into or remain in any establishment where
alcohol is the primary item of sale. You must abstain from alcohol and must submit to
urinalysis and Breathalyzer testing as directed by the supervising officer, but no more than
6 tests per month, in order to confirm continued abstinence from this substance.
Supporting Evidence: It is alleged that Mr. Anishchenko violated the terms of his probation
by consuming alcohol, on or about January 16, 2026.
On January 16, 2026, at approximately 10:45 a.m., Mr. Anishchenko was directed to report
to the United States Probation Office no later than 4 p.m. that same day for the purposes of
a urinalysis. That same day, at approximately 2 p.m. the undersigned officer received a
phone all from Mr. Anishchenko’s wife. She inquired into what would occur if Mr.
Anishchenko refused to report and advised that he had been drinking. He ultimately reported
to the probation office at approximately 3:30 p.m. He admitted to consuming two hurricane
alcoholic beverages and signed a drug use admission form. He was required to submit to
two breathalyzer tests. The readings on those breath samples were .312 and .312.

2 Special Condition # 6: You must not enter into or remain in any establishment where
alcohol is the primary item of sale. You must abstain from alcohol and must submit to
urinalysis and Breathalyzer testing as directed by the supervising officer, but no more than
6 tests per month, in order to confirm continued abstinence from this substance.
Supporting Evidence: It is alleged that Mr Anishchenko violated the terms of his probation
by consuming alcohol, on or about January 20, 2026.
On January 20, 2026, the undersigned officer conducted a home visit at approximately 9:45
a.m. Upon arrival, Mr. Anishchenko’s wife granted the undersigned officer access to their
bedroom where she advised he was located.
Mr. Anischenko was lying in bed. This officer had concerns that he was under the influence
given the glossy appearance of his eyes, an odor of alcohol and what appeared to be some
difficulty with Mr. Anishchenko communicating verbally. He ultimately admitted to
consuming two hurricane alcoholic beverages that morning. During this contact, Mr.
Anischenko denied having a problem with alcohol and stated he only has mental health
issues. However, Mr. Anishchenko reported that he stopped taking his mental health
medications after he discharged from inpatient treatment on January 12, 2026. In addition,
he has made no efforts to schedule a mental health counseling appointment.
Mr. Anischenko’s level of intoxication was so extreme that it was difficult to make any
progress in our conversations. Additionally, he had asked this officer for a hug numerous
times and became emotional when his requests were denied.
The U.S. Probation Office respectfully recommends the Court issue a warrant requiring the offender to appear to
answer to the allegation(s) contained in this petition.
I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.
Executed on: 01/21/2026
