FINDINGS OF FACT AND STATEMENT OF REASONS FOR DETENTION
(1) Defendant failed to appear on these charges on March 3, 2007, in response to a notice, and then on April 4, 2007 in response to a summons. The warrant issued that day has been outstanding for over 15 months. (2) He is 19 years of age. His mother resides in Guam and his father in Kentucky.
Defendant reports he lives with a friend in Bremerton. (3) He was convicted of theft of a firearm in 2006 and of theft of a motor vehicle in June of 2008 . (4) The Washington State Department of Corrections advises he has a history of noncompliance, including violations of failing to report, failing to notify of a change of address, failing to complete mental health counseling, and positive urinalysis for marijuana in May of 2008. They also report he has a history of absconding from supervision. (5) Defendant was not interviewed by the pretrial services officer because authorization was not obtained from defense counsel.
It is therefore ORDERED: (1) Defendant shall be detained pending trial and committed to the custody of the Attorney General for confinement in a corrections facility separate, to the extent practicable, from persons awaiting or serving sentences or being held in custody pending appeal; (2) Defendant shall be afforded reasonable opportunity for private consultation with counsel;
