25 Mr. Barrera-Barrera. A subsequent background check revealed that Mr. Barrera-Barrera has criminal and 26 27 28 Unless otherwise stated, the "facts" referenced in these papers come from government-produced documents that the defense continues to investigate.

1 immigration history. Prosecution was authorized. It is then alleged that agents informed Mr. Barrera-Barrera 2 of his constitutional rights under Miranda, that he waived them, and made incriminating statements. 3 On January 2, 2008 the grand jury returned a true bill of indictment charging Mr. Barrera-Barrera

4 with one (1) count of violating 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a) & (b) -Deported Alien Found in the United States. These 5 motions follow. 6 7 8 II. MOTION TO COMPEL DISCOVERY Mr. Barrera-Barrera moves for the production of the following discovery. This request is not limited

9 to those items that the prosecutor knows of, but rather includes all discovery listed below that is in the 10 custody, control, care, or knowledge of any "closely related investigative [or other] agencies." See 11 United States v. Bryan, 868 F.2d 1032 (9th Cir. 1989). 12 To date, defense counsel has received only 18 pages of discovery. Mr. Barrera-Barrera respectfully

13 requests that the government be ordered to produce discovery because Mr. Barrera-Barrera has reason to 14 believe that he has not received all the discoverable material in his case. Mr. Barrera-Barrera specifically 15 requests production of a copy of the taped proceedings and any and all documents memorializing the 16 deportation proceedings allegedly held and any other proceedings that the government intends to rely upon 17 at trial. This request includes discovery of materials known to the government attorney, as well as discovery 18 of materials which the government attorney may become aware of through the exercise of due diligence. See 19 FED. R. CRIM. P. 16. 20 Mr. Barrera-Barrera has also not received a full copy of his A-file. Mr. Barrera-Barrera filed a request

21 for his A-file with the National Records Center pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act, however, he fears 22 that his request will not be processed until after the completion of his trial. Thus, Mr. Barrera-Barrera requests 23 a full copy of his A-file and any other immigration files linked to his immigration history. Mr. Barrera-Barrera 24 specifically requests the documents memorializing the alleged deportation proceedings and any other 25 proceedings that the government intends to rely upon at trial. 26 Mr. Barrera-Barrera additionally requests that the Court order the government to allow him the

27 opportunity to review his A-file in its entirety. First, the A-file contains documentation concerning his alleged 28 // 2 08CR0014-WQH

1 deportation. Part of Mr. Barrera-Barrera defense may be that his underlying deportation was invalid. The 2 documents in the A-file would help illuminate the validity or futility of such a defense. For example, A-file 3 documents typically contain biographical information. Such information is essential to determining whether 4 Mr. Barrera-Barrera's deportation was invalid. 5 Second, the government will likely try to show at trial that a government officer searched the A-file

6 and did not find an application by Mr. Barrera-Barrera for permission to enter the United States. Mr. Barrera7 Barrera anticipates that the government will attempt to admit a "Certificate of Non-Existence of Record" 8 against him, arguing that if Mr. Barrera-Barrera had ever applied for permission to enter the United States, 9 such an application would be found in the A-file and because such an application is not in the A-file, 10 Mr. Barrera-Barrera must not have applied for permission to enter the United States. 11 Although the certificate might be admissible, the question of the thoroughness of the search

12 conducted by the government of the A-file is, and should be, open to cross-examination. United States v. 13 Sager, 227 F.3d 1138, 1145 (2000) (error not to allow jury to "grade the investigation."). Mr. Barrera-Barrera 14 should be able to review his A-file in order to see whether any application for lawful admission exists. 15 Moreover, Mr. Barrera-Barrera should also be able to verify whether other documents that would ordinarily 16 be in the A-file are "non-existent," or otherwise missing from his A-file. Mr. Barrera-Barrera may assert a 17 defense that his application for lawful entry was lost or otherwise misplaced by the government. He must be 18 allowed the opportunity to review his A-file and the manner in which it is being maintained by the government 19 in order to present this defense. 20 In addition, Mr. Barrera-Barrera moves for the production by the government of the following

21 discovery. This request is not limited to those items that the prosecutor knows of, but rather includes all 22 discovery listed below that is in the custody, control, care, or knowledge of any government agency. See 23 generally Kyles v. Whitley, 514 U.S. 419 (1995); United States v. Bryan, 868 F.2d 1032 (9th Cir. 1989). 24 (1) Mr. Barrera-Barrera's Statements. The government must disclose to Mr. Barrera-Barrera all

25 copies of any written or recorded statements made by him; the substance of any statements made by him that 26 the government intends to offer in evidence at trial; any response by him to interrogation; the substance of any 27 oral statements which the government intends to introduce at trial and any written summaries of him oral 28 statements contained in the handwritten notes of government agent; any response to any Miranda warnings 3 08CR0014-WQH

1 that may have been given to him; as well as any other statements by him. FED. R. CRIM. P. 16(a)(1)(A). The 2 Advisory Committee Notes and the 1991 amendments to Rule 16 make clear that the government must reveal 3 all Mr. Barrera-Barrera's statements, whether oral or written, regardless of whether the government intends 4 to make any use of those statements. Additionally, the government must "disclose any written record which 5 contains reference to a relevant oral statement by Mr. Barrera-Barrera which was in response to interrogation, 6 without regard to whether the prosecution intends to use the statement at trial." FED. R. CRIM. P. 16 advisory 7 committee notes (1991 Amendment) (emphasis added). 8 (2) Arrest Reports, Notes, Dispatch Tapes, and Audio/Video Recordings. Mr. Barrera-Barrera also

9 specifically requests that all arrest reports, notes, and dispatch or any other audio/video recordings that relate 10 to the circumstances surrounding arrest or any questioning, be turned over. This request includes, but is not 11 limited to, any rough notes, records, reports, in field communication between officers, transcripts or other 12 documents in which statements of Mr. Barrera-Barrera or any other discoverable material is contained. 13 Mr. Barrera-Barrera includes in this request any redacted portions of the Report of Investigation 14 ("ROI") and any subsequent ROIs that the case agent or any other agent has written. This is all 15 discoverable under FED. R. CRIM. P. 16(a)(1)(A) and Brady v. Maryland, 373 U.S. 83 (1963). See also Loux 16 v. United States, 389 F.2d 911 (9th Cir.), cert. denied, 393 U.S. 869 (1968); United States v. Johnson, 525 17 F.2d 999 (2d Cir. 1975), cert. denied, 424 U.S. 920 (1976); United States v. Lewis, 511 F.2d 798 (D.C. Cir. 18 1975); United States v. Pilnick, 267 F. Supp. 791 (S.D.N.Y. 1967). 19 Arrest reports, investigator's notes, memos from arresting officers, dispatch tapes, audio/video

20 recordings, sworn statements, and prosecution reports pertaining to the defendant are available under FED. 21 R. CRIM. P. 16(a)(1)(B) and (c), FED. R. CRIM. P. 26.2 and 12(I). Preservation of rough notes is specifically 22 requested, whether or not the Government deems them discoverable at this time. 23 (3) Brady Material. Mr. Barrera-Barrera requests all documents, statements, agents' reports, and

24 tangible evidence favorable to him on the issue of guilt and/or that affects the credibility of the government's 25 case. Impeachment, as well as, exculpatory evidence falls within Brady's definition of evidence favorable to 26 the accused. United States v. Bagley, 473 U.S. 667 (1985); United States v. Agurs, 427 U.S. 97 (1976). 27 (4) Any Information That May Result in a Lower Sentence Under The Sentencing Guidelines. As

28 discussed above, this information is discoverable under Brady v. Maryland, 373 U.S. 83 (1963). This request 4 08CR0014-WQH

1 includes any cooperation or attempted cooperation by Mr. Barrera-Barrera, as well as any information that 2 could affect any base offense level or specific offense characteristic under Chapter Two of the Sentencing 3 Guidelines. Also included in this request is any information relevant to a Chapter Three adjustment, a 4 determination of Mr. Barrera-Barrera's criminal history, or any other application of the Guidelines. 5 (5) Mr. Barrera-Barrera's Prior Record. Evidence of prior record is discoverable under FED. R. CRIM.

6 P. 16(a)(1)(B). Defense Counsel specifically requests a complete copy of any criminal record. Mr. Barrera7 Barrera requests all evidence, documents, records of judgments and convictions, photographs and tangible 8 evidence, and information pertaining to any prior arrests and convictions. 9 (6) Any Proposed 404(b) Evidence. Evidence of prior similar acts is discoverable under FED. R.

10 CRIM. P. 16(a)(1)(c) and FED. R. EVID. 404(b) and 609. In addition, under FED. R. EVID. 404(b), "upon request 11 of the accused, the prosecution . . . shall provide reasonable notice in advance of trial . . . of the general nature 12 . . ." of any evidence the government proposes to introduce under FED. R. EVID. 404(b) at trial. Sufficient 13 notice requires the government to "articulate precisely the evidential hypothesis by which a fact of 14 consequence may be inferred from the other acts evidence." United States v. Mehrmanesh, 689 F.2d 822, 830 15 (9th Cir. 1982) (emphasis added; internal citations omitted); see also United States v. Brooke, 4 F.3d 1480, 16 1483 (9th Cir. 1993) (reaffirming Mehrmanesh and reversing convictions). 17 This includes any "TECS" records (records of prior border crossings) that the government intends

18 to introduce at trial, whether in its case-in-chief, impeachment, or rebuttal. United States v. Vega, 188 F.3d 19 1150, 1154-55 (9th Cir. 1999). Although there is nothing intrinsically improper about prior border crossings, 20 they are nonetheless subject to 404(b), as they are "other acts" evidence that the Government must produce 21 before trial. United States v. Vega, 188 F.3d 1150, 1154-55 (9th Cir. 1999). 22 Mr. Barrera-Barrera requests that such notice be given at least four (4) weeks before trial to give

23 the defense time to adequately investigate and prepare for trial. 24 (7) Evidence Seized. Evidence seized as a result of any search, either warrantless or with a warrant,

25 is discoverable under FED. R. CRIM. P. 16(a)(1)(c), and Mr. Barrera-Barrera requests it. 26 (8) Tangible Objects. Mr. Barrera-Barrera requests, under FED. R. CRIM. P. 16(a)(1)(c), the

27 opportunity to inspect and copy as well as test, if necessary, all other documents and tangible portions objects, 28 including photographs, books, papers, documents, photographs of buildings or places or copies of thereof 5 08CR0014-WQH

4 Government's possession. 5 (9) Evidence of Bias or Motive to Lie. Mr. Barrera-Barrera requests any evidence that any

6 prospective government witness is biased or prejudiced against Mr. Barrera-Barrera, or has a motive to falsify 7 or distort his or him testimony. Pennsylvania v. Ritchie, 480 U.S. 39 (1987); United States v. Strifler, 851 8 F.2d 1197 (9th Cir. 1988). 9 (10) Impeachment Evidence. Mr. Barrera-Barrera requests any evidence that any prospective

10 government witness has engaged in any criminal act whether or not resulting in a conviction and whether any 11 witness has made a statement favorable to Mr. Barrera-Barrera. See FED. R. EVID. 608, 609 and 613. Such 12 evidence is discoverable under Brady v. Maryland, supra. See United States v. Strifler, 851 F.2d 1197 (9th 13 Cir. 1988) (witness' prior record); Thomas v. United States, 343 F.2d 49 (9th Cir. 1965) (evidence that 14 detracts from a witness' credibility).All of this is relevant impeachment information. 15 (11) Evidence of Criminal Investigation of Any Government Witness. Mr. Barrera-Barrera requests

16 any evidence that any prospective witness is under investigation by federal, state or local authorities for any 17 criminal conduct. United States v. Chitty, 760 F.2d 425 (2d Cir. 1985). 18 (12) Evidence Affecting Perception, Recollection, Ability to Communicate. Mr. Barrera-Barrera

19 requests any evidence, including any medical or psychiatric report or evaluation, tending to show that any 20 prospective witness's ability to perceive, remember, communicate, or tell the truth is impaired; and any 21 evidence that a witness has ever used narcotics or other controlled substance, or has ever been an alcoholic. 22 United States v. Strifler, 851 F.2d 1197 (9th Cir. 1988); Chavis v. North Carolina, 637 F.2d 213, 224 (4th Cir. 23 1980). 24 (13) Witness Addresses. Mr. Barrera-Barrera requests the name and last known address of each

25 prospective government witness. See United States v. Napue, 834 F.2d 1311 (7th Cir. 1987); United States 26 v. Tucker, 716 F.2d 576 (9th Cir. 1983) (failure to interview government witnesses by counsel is ineffective); 27 United States v. Cook, 608 F.2d 1175, 1181 (9th Cir. 1979) (defense has equal right to talk to witnesses). 28 Mr. Barrera-Barrera also requests the name and last known address of every witness to the crime or crimes 6 08CR0014-WQH

4 of any witness who made any arguably favorable statement concerning him or who could not identify him or 5 who was unsure of him identity, or participation in the crime charged. Jackson v. Wainwright, 390 F.2d 288 6 (5th Cir. 1968); Chavis v. North Carolina, 637 F.2d 213, 223 (4th Cir. 1980); Jones v. Jago, 575 F.2d 1164, 7 1168 (6th Cir.), cert. denied, 439 U.S. 883 (1978); Hudson v.

Mr. Barrera-Barrera requests all material to which he is entitled pursuant

14 to the Jencks Act, 18 U.S.C. § 3500, reasonably in advance of trial, including dispatch tapes. A verbal 15 acknowledgment that "rough" notes constitute an accurate account of the witness' interview is sufficient for 16 the report or notes to qualify as a statement under § 3500(e)(1). Campbell v. United States, 373 U.S. 487, 17 490-92 (1963). 18 (17) Giglio Information. Pursuant to Giglio v. United States, 405 U.S. 150 (1972), Mr. Barrera-

Pursuant to FED. R. CRIM. P. 16(a)(1)(D),

23 Mr. Barrera-Barrera requests the reports of all tests and examinations conducted upon the evidence in this 24 case. Including, but not limited to, any fingerprint testing done upon any evidence seized in this case, that is 25 within the possession, custody, or control of the government, the existence of which is known, or by the 26 exercise of due diligence may become known, to the attorney for the government, and which are material to 27 the preparation of the defense or are intended for use by the government as evidence in chief at the trial. 28 // 7 08CR0014-WQH

(19) Henthorn Material. Mr. Barrera-Barrera requests that the prosecutor review the personnel files

2 of the officers involved in this arrests, and those who will testify, and produce to him any exculpatory 3 information at least two weeks prior to trial and one week prior to the motion hearing. See United States v. 4 Henthorn, 931 F.2d 29 (9th Cir. 1991). In addition, he requests that if the government is uncertain whether 5 certain information is to be turned over pursuant to this request, that it produce such information to the Court 6 in advance of the trial and the motion hearing for an in camera inspection. 7 (20) Informants and Cooperating Witnesses. Mr. Barrera-Barrera requests disclosure of the names

8 and addresses of all informants or cooperating witnesses used or to be used in this case. To the extent that 9 there was any informant, or any other tip leading to a TECS hit in this case Mr. Barrera-Barrera requests 10 disclosure of the names and addresses of all informants or cooperating witnesses used or to be used in this 11 case, and in particular, disclosure of any informant who was a percipient witness in this case or otherwise 12 participated in the crime charged against him. The government must disclose the informant's identity and 13 location, as well as disclose the existence of any other percipient witness unknown or unknowable to the 14 defense. Roviaro v. United States, 353 U.S. 53, 61-62 (1957). Mr. Barrera-Barrera also requests disclosure 15 of any information indicating bias on the part of any informant or cooperating witness. Giglio v. United States, 16 405 U.S. 150 (1972). Such information would include what, if any, inducements, favors, payments, or threats 17 were made to the witness to secure cooperation with the authorities. 18 (21) Expert Witnesses. Mr. Barrera-Barrera requests disclosure of the identities of any expert

19 witnesses the government intends to call at trial as well as "a written summary of testimony that the 20 government intends to use," including the "witnesses' opinions, the bases and the reasons for those opinions, 21 and the witnesses' qualifications." FED. R. CRIM. P. 16(a)(1)(E). 22 (22) Personnel Records of Government Officers Involved in the Arrest. Mr. Barrera-Barrera requests

23 all citizen complaints and other related internal affairs documents involving any of the immigration officers 24 or other law enforcement officers who were involved in the investigation, arrest and interrogation of 25 Mr. Barrera-Barrera. See Pitchess v. Superior Court, 11 Cal. 3d 531, 539 (1974). Because of the sensitive 26 nature of these documents, defense counsel will be unable to procure them from any other source. 27 (23) Training of Relevant Law Enforcement Officers. Mr. Barrera-Barrera requests copies of all

28 written, videotaped or otherwise recorded policies or training instructions or manuals issued by all law 8 08CR0014-WQH

Mr. Barrera-Barrera also requests all written or otherwise attainable information regarding the 8 training of ICE agents at ports of entry in California to detect or discover narcotics in vehicles entering the 9 United States, including any training offered to Border Patrol, INS, or officers of Homeland Security 10 Department, by the DEA or other law enforcement agencies or individuals. 11 (24) Names and Contact Information for All Agents in the Field at the Time of the Arrest.

12 Mr. Barrera-Barrera requests the name and contact information for each of the agents in the field at the time 13 of the arrest. See United States v. Napue, 834 F.2d 1311 (7th Cir. 1987); United States v. Tucker, 716 F.2d 14 576 (9th Cir. 1983) (failure to interview government witnesses by counsel is ineffective); United States v. 15 Cook, 608 F.2d 1175, 1181 (9th Cir. 1979) (defense has equal right to talk to witnesses). Mr. Barrera-Barrera 16 also requests the name and contact information of every agent to the crime or crimes charged (or any of the 17 overt acts committed in furtherance thereof) who will not be called as a government witness. United States 18 v. Cadet, 727 F.2d 1453 (9th Cir. 1984). 19 (25) Agreements Between the Government and Witnesses. Mr. Barrera-Barrera requests discovery

20 regarding any express or implicit promise, understanding, offer of immunity, of past, present, or future 21 compensation, or any other kind of agreement or understanding, including any implicit understanding relating 22 to criminal or civil income tax, forfeiture or fine liability, between any prospective government witness and 23 the government (federal, state and/or local). This request also includes any discussion with a potential witness 24 about or advice concerning any immigration benefits, any contemplated prosecution, or any possible plea 25 bargain, even if no bargain was made or the advice not followed. 26 (26) Residual Request. Mr. Barrera-Barrera intends by this discovery motion to invoke him rights to

27 discovery to the fullest extent possible under the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure and the Constitution 28 and laws of the United States. This request specifically includes all subsections of Rule 16. Mr. Barrera9 08CR0014-WQH

1 Barrera requests that the government provide him and his attorney with the above requested material 2 sufficiently in advance of trial. 3 4 5 III. THIS COURT SHOULD ORDER PRESERVATION OF EVIDENCE Mr. Barrera-Barrera requests the preservation of all physical evidence in this case. This includes any

6 evidence that may be destroyed, lost, or otherwise put out of the possession, custody, or care of the 7 government (or its private contractors) in this case. United States v. Riley, 189 F.3d 802, 806-08 8 (9th Cir.1999). This request includes, but is not limited to: (1) the results of any fingerprint analysis; (2) 9 Mr. Barrera-Barrera's personal effects; (3) the agents' rough notes; (4) any radio broadcast, if it is recorded; 10 (5) any evidence seized from Mr. Barrera-Barrera or any third party (i.e., material witnesses, co-defendants); 11 (6) any alleged contraband seized in this case; (7) and any cellular phone(s). This request also includes any 12 material or percipient witnesses who might be deported or otherwise likely to become unavailable (e.g. 13 undocumented aliens and transients). 14 It is requested that the prosecutor be ordered to question all the agencies and individuals involved in

15 the prosecution and investigation of this case to determine if such evidence exists, and if it does exist, to 16 inform those parties to preserve any such evidence. 17 18 19 IV. MOTION FOR LEAVE TO FILE ADDITIONAL MOTIONS Defense counsel has received 18 pages of discovery in this case and has not yet had the opportunity

20 to complete important aspects of the investigation. As information comes to light, due to the government 21 providing additional discovery in response to these motions or an order of this Court, Mr. Barrera-Barrera will 22 almost certainly find it necessary to file further motions. It is, therefore, requested that defense counsel be 23 allowed the opportunity to file further motions based upon information gained through the discovery process. 24 // 25 // 26 // 27 // 28 // 10 08CR0014-WQH
