and Customs Enforcement (hereinafter, "BICE") on July 10, 2008. The material witness bond was approved by the Honorable William McCurine, Jr. on July 10, 2008, the duty magistrate judge on that date. It was anticipated that the material witness would be released from BICE on her own recognizance as is the usual custom in cases such as this one. On July 10, 2008, subsequent to material witness' release on bond, the declarant was informed by BICE agent Richard Otero that BICE had information that Ernestina Patricia Serrano had a record of absconding from BICE and had been deported. Hence Ernestina Patricia
Serrano would not be released from BICE custody. Agent Otero requested that Ernestina Patricia Serrano therefore be transferred back into the custody of the United States Marshal.
MOTION It is requested that the material witness bond posted on her behalf be revoked and that Ernestina Patricia Serrano be transferred from BICE custody back into the custody of the United States Marshal.
DATED: 7/10/08
