CASE 0:21-cr-00169-ECT-JFD Doc. 49 Filed 06/08/22 Page 1 of 3
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
DISTRICT OF MINNESOTA
Criminal No. 21-169 (ECT/HB)
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff,
AMENDED ORDER REGARDING
v. DETENTION PLACEMENT
HAROLD BENNIE KAEDING,
Defendant.
This matter came before the Court for status conferences on June 1, 2022, and June
3, 2022, to discuss the interplay of Defendant Harold Bennie Kaeding’s pretrial detention
at Sherburne County Jail (SCJ) and the treatment of his related medical conditions. Based
on the current record, the Court orders the United States Marshal Service and the Bureau
of Prisons to take all available action to assess the feasibility of placing Kaeding in a BOP
medical facility for the duration of his pretrial detention or until it is medically determined
that such level of care is no longer needed.
BACKGROUND
1. On August 4, 2021, a grand jury charged Kaeding with wire fraud and money
laundering for allegedly applying for numerous COVID-19 relief loans he was not entitled
to receive. (Dkt 1.)
2. On January 8, 2022, the Court ordered Kaeding detained pending trial
because he posed a significant risk of nonappearance. (Dkts. 23, 28.) As detailed in the
Court’s detention order, Kaeding required involuntary deportation from Colombia to face
CASE 0:21-cr-00169-ECT-JFD Doc. 49 Filed 06/08/22 Page 2 of 3
the charges in this matter. (Dkt. 28 at ¶¶ 4-9.) Kaeding has been detained at SCJ since that
time.
3. At the June 1 and June 3, 2022 status conferences, defense counsel advised
that SCJ has sent Kaeding to area hospitals on numerous occasions to receive medical
treatment. Although Kaeding has been discharged back to SCJ, defense counsel advised
that—according to SCJ—Kaeding’s current medical requirements are straining the medical
resources at SCJ.
4. The government indicated its desire to ensure that Kaeding’s medical needs
are fully and adequately addressed. The government is concerned, however, that SCJ also
has indicated Kaeding’s unwillingness to cooperate with his own medical care and
treatment. Accordingly, the government is concerned that Kaeding is malingering to
secure his release from pretrial detention.
5. The Government represented that it may be possible for Kaeding to be placed
at a facility operated by the Bureau of Prisons which would have greater capacity than SCJ
to simultaneously provide for Kaeding’s medical needs while facilitating his pretrial
detention, but that a court order would be needed before such placement could be fully
explored.
ORDER
6. The United States Marshal Service must take all possible action as quickly
as possible to explore options for Defendant Harold Bennie Kaeding’s placement at a
suitable facility operated by the Bureau of Prisons.

7. The Bureau of Prisons is requested to take all possible action as quickly as
possible to identify a suitable facility that can provide for Kaeding’s medical needs while
ensuring his continued pretrial detention.
8. The United States Marshal Service shall promptly update the Assistant US
Attorney on this case of any developments, and the Assistant US Attorney shall promptly
update the Court and defense counsel as to such developments. For the avoidance of doubt,
if a potentially suitable facility is identified, Kaeding shall not be moved to such facility
without giving Kaeding, through counsel, an opportunity to be heard.
9. All other provisions of the Court’s January 11, 2022 Order of Detention
remain in full force and effect.
