                   (d) any felony if such person has been convicted of two or more offenses described in subparagraphs
                   (a) through (c) of this paragraph, or two or more State or local offenses that would have been offenses
                   described in subparagraphs (a) through (c) of this paragraph if a circumstance giving rise to Federal
                   jurisdiction had existed, or a combination of such offenses; or
                   (e) any felony that is not otherwise a crime of violence but involves:
                   (i) a minor victim; (ii) the possession of a firearm or destructive device (as defined in 18 U.S.C. § 921);
                   (iii) any other dangerous weapon; or (iv) a failure to register under 18 U.S.C. § 2250; and
             (2) the defendant has previously been convicted of a Federal offense that is described in 18 U.S.C.
             § 3142(f)(1), or of a State or local offense that would have been such an offense if a circumstance giving rise

             committed while the defendant was on release pending trial for a Federal, State, or local offense; and

          x (1) an offense for which a maximum term of imprisonment of 10 years or more is prescribed in the
            Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. §§ 801-904), the Controlled Substances Import and Export Act (21

            2260, 2421, 2422, 2423, or 2425.

   x C. Conclusions Regarding Applicability of Any Presumption Established Above

            x The defendant has not introduced sufficient evidence to rebut the presumption above, and detention is
              ordered on that basis. (Part III need not be completed.)
               OR
               The defendant has presented evidence sufficient to rebut the presumption, but after considering the
               presumption and the other factors discussed below, detention is warranted.

                                  Part III - Analysis and Statement of the Reasons for Detention

     After considering the factors set forth in 18 U.S.C. § 3142(g) and the information presented at the detention hearing,
the Court concludes that the defendant must be detained pending trial because the Government has proven:

     the safety of any other person and the community.

   x By a preponderance of evidence that no condition or combination of conditions of release will reasonably assure
     the defendant’s appearance as required.

In addition to any findings made on the record at the hearing, the reasons for detention include the following:

        x Weight of evidence against the defendant is strong
