Sentencing Memorandum — United States v. Derek James Acree (Dkt. 25, S.D. Fla.)

Summary

The defendant's Sentencing Memorandum in United States v. Derek James Acree, Case No. 22-CR-80157-AHS, in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida, entered on the docket 12/31/2022 as Document 25 and signed by counsel Christopher A. Haddad. It states the defendant pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit wire fraud under 18 U.S.C. § 1349, agreed to restitution of $1,262,600, and faces a guidelines range of 41-51 months at total offense level 22 and criminal history category I. The memorandum explains that an objection to the 16-level loss enhancement was filed only to preserve the issue after a later Third Circuit decision, while acknowledging the plea agreement's terms. It argues that the business partner identified as CC1 was the guiding force, cites the defendant's upbringing and expert reports, and asks for a low-end sentence of 41-months imprisonment.
