Andy and Rolando: Please see below so you understand my frustration. This document is completely different from what Jay just told Andy they would agree to. He has it written as 16 months’ imprisonment followed by 8 months federal supervised release. He wants us to recommend an improper calculation of the guidelines, and he wants to waive the PSI so he can keep all of his information confidential. I have already told Jay that the PSI language and other language in this agreement was unacceptable to our office. I will send back a plea agreement that reads consistent with what Jay represented to Andy but I don’t believe that this will be resolved by Tuesday unless they come down here and we have a group contract writing session with the state attorney’s office and the decision-makers.¶

Confidential — For Settlement purposes only.¶
Marie — Please look this over and let’s see if we can identify any issues that we need to discuss in greater detail. Since you can’t go to only one count of obstruction, but 18 would become about 15 with gain time, I have made a proposal of a total 24 month sentence based on two informations. This would include a period of home detention. We can then follow¶

this with a state plea as well so he serves the additional time there. I need to see your language for proffers on the two charges - (taking Nadia and Sarah out of the jurisdiction to avoid process.)¶
Alternatively, at this stage, we could have just one count for 12 months and then 6 months incarceration under the state followed by community control and probabtion. I am not sure which is more practicable.¶
Please let me know when you are free to speak.¶
Thanks — Jay¶

Hi Jay – I know that the U.S. Attorney will not go below 18 months of prison/jail time (and I would strongly oppose the suggestion).¶

an alternative to what we discussed just now might be to plead to one count of 1512, serve 12 months plus supervised release which would be one year of home detention (if we can make that work), followed by two years of probation in the state on the state charges with the first 6 months being community control.¶
