United States v. McNair, 1:22-cr-00015

Alex McNair was conditionally released pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 4243(f) following a finding related to his mental health condition.
Release conditions included residing at a specific location, submitting to drug testing, complying with psychiatric treatment, and supervision by the U.S. Probation Office for an initial one-year period, with status reports to the court.
Following full compliance during the first year, McNair's conditional release was extended for an additional year, with status reporting changed from monthly to quarterly.
Over two years of supervision, McNair remained fully compliant, took prescribed medication, and maintained strong family support.
At a June 2025 hearing, all parties agreed McNair had complied with all conditions; the government and defense both requested his discharge.
The court found by a preponderance of the evidence that McNair no longer posed a substantial risk of harm to others or property, leading to his discharge from supervision.
