phones, other electronic communications or data storage devices or media, email accounts, social media
accounts, cloud storage accounts, or other areas under the defendant's control, to a search conducted by a
United States Probation Officer or law enforcement officer. Failure to submit to a search may be grounds for

manner upon reasonable suspicion that the defendant has violated a condition of her supervision and that the
areas to be searched contain evidence of this violation.

It is ordered that the defendant shall pay to the United States a special assessment of $100, which is due immediately.
Any unpaid balance shall be due during the period of supervised release, at the rate of not less than $25 per quarter.

It is ordered that the defendant shall pay restitution in the total amount of $49,404.67 pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3663A.

The amount of restitution ordered shall be paid as follows:

Victim Amount

California Employment Development Department $49,404.67

A partial payment of $25 shall be paid immediately. Nominal monthly payments of at least 10% of defendant's gross
monthly income but not less than $50, whichever is greater, shall be made during the period of supervised release.
Nominal restitution payments are ordered as the Court finds that the defendant's economic circumstances do not allow
for either immediate or future payment of the amount ordered.

The defendant shall be held jointly and severally liable with co-participants, Natalie Le Demola and Carleisha Neosha
Plummer to the extent they are determined to be liable for the same victim losses. The victims' recovery is limited to
the amount of their loss and the defendant's liability for restitution ceases if and when the victims receive full
restitution.

Pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3612(f)(3)(A), interest on the restitution ordered is waived because the defendant does not have
the ability to pay interest. Payments may be subject to penalties for default and delinquency pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §
3612(g).

The defendant shall comply with Second Amended General Order No. 20-04.
