ORDER ADOPTING MAGISTRATE JUDGE'S FINDINGS
OF FACT AND RECOMMENDATION ON FELONY GUILTY PLEA
REGARDING COUNT ONE OF THE INDICTMENT
 On this day, the Court considered the Findings of Fact and Recommendation of the
United States Magistrate Judge regarding Defendant's plea of guilty to Count ONE of the
INDICTMENT in the above-numbered cause. Having conducted a proceeding in the form and
manner prescribed by Fed. R. Crim. P. 11, the Magistrate Judge recommends that the Court
accept the guilty plea of the Defendant.
 No objections have been filed to the Magistrate's Findings and Recommendation within
the time period set by law, and neither party has requested a de novo review of the plea
proceedings before the Magistrate. If a de novo review becomes necessary at any point during
the pendency of the cause, the Court reserves the right to conduct it. Based on the current record
before the Court, since it appears that the Findings and Recommendation are neither clearly
erroneous nor contrary to law, the Court is of the opinion that said Findings and
Recommendation should be adopted.
 It is accordingly ORDERED that the Findings of Fact and Recommendation of the United
States Magistrate Judge filed May 29, 2026, are hereby ADOPTED.

 It is further ORDERED that the Defendant's guilty plea is accepted and approved by the
Court.
 It is finally ORDERED that the Court finds Defendant GUILTY on Count ONE of the
INDICTMENT in the above-numbered cause and enters a JUDGMENT OF GUILTY against the
Defendant as to Count ONE.
 SIGNED this 16th day of June, 2026.
