detention hearing, and the available conditions of release under 18 U.S.C. § 3142(c), the Court concludes that the

the defendant’s appearance as required.

OTHER REASONS OR FURTHER EXPLANATION:
Darryl King is charged in a criminal complaint with being a felon in possession of a firearm, in violation of 18 U.S.C. 922(g)(1). The charges stem from an incident that allegedly occurred a few days
ago at a Dollar General store in Detroit. Multiple people called 911 to ask for police assistance. King had allegedly stolen laundry detergent and when confronted outside of the store by an employee,
King allegedly pulled a black handgun from his waistband and pointed it towards the employee. The employee indicated to police that King had started walking away and that when the officers arrived,
he changed directions and ran towards an adjacent vacant field. Officers apprehended King nearby, and when they searched the field they found a handgun and a waistband holster.
While somewhat old, King has prior convictions for controlled substances and armed robbery. He has failed to appear for criminal matters, including a 2003 controlled substances sentencing, and it
took a year to locate him. He violated probation on multiple occasions. He is unemployed and has a drug problem. While the Court recognizes that the government did not present video evidence of
the alleged crime, alternative theories - such as that the gun found by the officers was randomly located in the field or was planted there by the store employee - seem implausible. Coupled with his
prior record and the fact that multiple people called 911 to report the incident, the government met its burden as to King's dangerousness.

Part IV - Directions Regarding Detention
The defendant is remanded to the custody of the Attorney General or to the Attorney General’s designated representative
for confinement in a corrections facility separate, to the extent practicable, from persons awaiting or serving sentences or
being held in custody pending appeal. The defendant must be afforded a reasonable opportunity for private consultation
with defense counsel. On order of a court of the United States or on request of an attorney for the Government, the
person in charge of the corrections facility must deliver the defendant to a United States Marshal for the purpose of an
appearance in connection with a court proceeding.
