Case Document 67 Filed 12/13/18 Page 1 of 12 U.S. Department of Justice Jessie K. Liu United States Attorney District ofColumbia JudJCiary Center 555 Fourth St. Washington, 20530 December 6, 2018 t. If Robert Driscoll, Esq. Alfred Carry, Esq. 3E0 ?5 3 2018 McGlinchey Stafford PLLC 1275 Avenue NW. Clerk, U.S. District and Suite 420 Bankruptcy Courts Washington, DC. 20004 Re: United States V. Mariia Butina Criminal Case No. 18-218 (TSC) Dear Counsel: This letter sets forth the full and complete plea offer to your client, Mariia Butina (hereinafter referred to as ?your client? or ??defendant?), from the Of?ce of the United States Attorney for the District of Columbia (hereinafter also referred to as ?the Govermnent? or ?this Of?ce?). This plea offer expires on December 10, 2018. If your client accepts the terms and conditions of this offer, please have your client execute this document in the space provided below. Upon receipt of the executed document, this letter will become the Plea Agreement (?this Agreement?). The terms of the offer are as follows: 1. Charges and Statutory Penalties Your client agrees to plead guilty to Count 1 in the Indictment, charging your client with Conspiracy to violate 18 U.S.C. 951, in violation of 18 U.S.C. 371. Your client understands that a violation of 18 U.S.C. 371 carries a maximum sentence of 5 years of imprisonment; a ?ne of $250,000 or twice the pecuniary gain or loss of the offense, pursuant to 18 U.S.C.. 3571(b)(3); a term of supervised release of not more than 3 years, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 3583(b)(2); and an obligation to pay any applicable interest or penalties on ?nes and restitution not timely made. Case Document 67 Filed 12/13/18 Page 2 of 12 In addition, your client agrees to pay a special assessment of $100 per felony conviction to the Clerk of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia. Your client also understands that, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 3572 and 5131.2 of the United States Sentencing Commission, Guidelines Manual (2016) (hereinafter ?Sentencing Guidelines,? ?Guidelines,? or the Court may also impose a ?ne that is suf?cient to pay the federal government the costs of any imprisonment, term of supervised release, and period of probation. Further, your client understands that, if your client has two or more convictions for a crime ofviolence or felony drug offense, your client may be subject to the substantially higher penalties provided for in the career-offender statutes and provisions of the Sentencing Guidelines. 2. Factual Stipulations Your client agrees that the attached ?Statement of Offense? fairly and accurately describes your client?s actions and involvement in the offense to which your client is pleading guilty. Please have your client sign and return the Statement of Offense as a written proffer of evidence, along with this Agreement. 3. Additional Charges In consideration of your client?s guilty plea to the above offense, your client will not be ?irther prosecuted criminally by this Of?ce for the conduct set forth in the attached Statement of Offense. After the entry of your client?s plea of guilty, your client will also not be charged with any non-violent criminal offense in violation of federal or District of Columbia law that was committed within the District of Columbia by your client prior to the execution of this Agreement and about which the United States Attorney?s Of?ce for the District of Columbia was made aware prior to the execution of this Agreement. The Government will request that the Court dismiss the remaining count of the Indictment in this case at the time of sentencing. Your client agrees and acknowledges that the charge to be dismissed at the time of sentencing was based in fact. 4. Sentencing Guidelines Analysis Your client understands that the sentence in this case will be determined by the Court pursuant to the factors set forth in 18 U.S.C. 3553(a), including a consideration of the applicable guidelines and policies promulgated by the Sentencing Guidelines. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 1 and to assist the Court in determining the appropriate sentence, the parties submit the following: A. Estimated Offense Level Under the Guidelines The parties agree that, per U.S.S.G. 2X1.1, the Guideline range for a violation of 18 U.S.C. 371 follows the underlying substantive offense, which in this case is 18 U.S.C. 951. The parties further agree that the U.S.S.G. does not specify a Guidelines range for a violation of 18 U.S.C. 951. Case Document 67 Filed 12/13/18 Page 3 of 12 Where the Guidelines do not expressly specify a Guideline range, the Court should ?apply the most analogous guideline. If there is not a suf?cient analogous guideline, the provisions of 18 U.S.C. 3553 shall control, except that any guidelines and policy statements that can be applied meaningfully in the absence of a Chapter Two offense guideline shall remain applicable.? U.S.S.G. 2X51. The Govemment?s position is that there is no suf?ciently analogous guideline for the underlying substantive offense and that the provisions of 18 U.S.C. 3553 should control sentencing. See United States v. Alvarez, 506 F. Supp. 2d 1285, 1288 (SD. Fla. 2007). The defendant submits that the guideline that best captures the defendant?s offense behavior and guideline that is most analogous for sentencing purposes here is U.S.S.G. 2B1.1. See United States v. Dumeisz', No 06C4l65, 2006 WL 2990436, *8 (ND. 111. Oct. 17, 2006) (same). Your client and the government reserve the right to brief the presentence report writer and Court as to their positions and agree that the Court will decide which, if any, Guideline range applies. The base offense level for U.S.S.G. 2B1 .1 is 6. However, your client understands that the ?nal decision regarding the applicable sentencing guideline and offense level will be made by the Court. B. Acceptance of Responsibility As before, the Govemment?s of?cial position is that there is no suf?ciently analogous guideline for the underlying substantive offense and that the provisions of 18 U.S.C. 3553 should control sentencing. If the Court ?nds a sufficiently analogous guideline, however, the Government agrees that a 2-leve1 reduction will be appropriate, pursuant to U.S.S.G. 3131.1, provided that your client clearly demonstrates acceptance of responsibility, to the satisfaction of the Government, through your client?s allocution, adherence to every provision of this Agreement, and conduct between entry of the plea and imposition of sentence. Nothing in this Agreement limits the right of the Government to seek denial of the adjustment for acceptance of responsibility, pursuant to U.S.S.G. 3E1.1, and/or imposition of an adjustment for obstruction of justice, pursuant to U.S.S.G. 3C1.1, regardless of any agreement set forth herein, should your client move to withdraw her guilty plea after it is entered or should it be determined by the Government that your client has either engaged in conduct, unknown to the Government at the time of the signing on this Agreement, that constitutes obstruction of justice, or engaged in additional criminal conduct after signing this Agreement. Should the Court use U.S.S.G. 2B1.1 in accordance with the above, the applicable Guidelines Offense Level would be at least 4. C. Estimated Criminal History Category Based upon the information now available to this Of?ce, your client has no criminal convictions. Case Document 67 Filed 12/13/18 Page 4 of 12 Ifyour client is a known foreign national, U.S.S.G. 4A1 provides that ?[s]entences resulting from foreign convictions are not counted, but may be considered under (Adequacy of Criminal History Category)? Accordingly, your client is estimated to have no criminal history points and your client?s Criminal History Category is estimated to be Category 1. Your client acknowledges that after the pre-sentence investigation by the United States Probation Of?ce, a different conclusion regarding your client?s criminal convictions and/or criminal history points may be reached and your client?s criminal history points may increase. D. Estimated Applicable Guidelines Range The Government maintains that there is no suf?ciently analogous guideline for the underlying substantive offense and that the provisions of 18 U.S.C. 3553 should control sentencing. However, the defendant submits that the most analogous guideline for sentencing purposes here is U.S.S.G. 2B1.1. Your client reserves the right to brief the presentence report writer and Court on the reasons why. If accepted, the estimated sentencing guideline range for U.S.S.G. 281.1 is 0-6 months? imprisonment (the ?Estimated Guidelines Range?). In addition, should the Court impose a ?ne pursuant to U.S.S.G. 5E1.2, at Guidelines level 4, the estimated applicable ?ne range is $500 to $9,500. The defendant reserves the right to ask the Court not to impose any applicable ?ne. However, your client understands that the ?nal decision regarding sentencing and the imposition of any ?ne will be made by the Court. 5. Agreement as to Sentencing Allocution The parties agree that, if the Court ?nds that a Guidelines range applies, a sentence within the Estimated Guidelines Range would constitute a reasonable sentence in light of all of the factors set forth in 18 U.S.C. 3553(a), should such a sentence be subject to appellate review notwithstanding the appeal waiver provided below. Nevertheless, your client reserves the right to seek a sentence below any Guidelines range ultimately set by the Court based upon factors to be considered in imposing a sentence pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 3553(a). 6. Reservation of Allocution The Government and your client reserve the right to describe fully, both orally and in writing, to the sentencing judge, the nature and seriousness of your client?s misconduct, including any misconduct not described in the charges to which your client is pleading guilty. The parties also reserve the right to inform the presentence report writer and the Court of any relevant facts, to dispute any factual inaccuracies in the presentence report, and to contest any matters not provided for in this Agreement. In the event that the Court considers any Sentencing Guidelines adjustments, departures, or calculations different from those agreed to and/or estimated in this Agreement, or contemplates a sentence outside the Guidelines range based upon the general sentencing factors listed in 18 U.S.C. 3553(a), then the parties reserve the right to Case Document 67 Filed 12/13/18 Page 5 of 12 answer any related inquiries from the Court and to allocute for a sentence Within the Guidelines range as ultimately determined by the Court, even if the Guidelines range ultimately determined by the Court is different from the Estimated Guidelines Range calculated herein. In addition, if in this Agreement the Government has agreed to recommend or refrain from recommending to the Court a particular resolution of any sentencing issue, the Government and your client reserve the right to full allocution in any post-sentence litigation. The parties retain the full right of allocution in connection with any post-sentence motion which may be ?led in this matter and/or any proceeding(s) before the Bureau of Prisons. In addition, your client acknowledges that the Government is not obligated and does not intend to ?le any post-sentence downward departure motion in this case pursuant to Rule 35(b) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure. 7. Court Not Bound by this Agreement or the Sentencing Guidelines Your client understands that the sentence in this case will be imposed in accordance with 18 U.S.C. 3553(a), upon consideration of the Sentencing Guidelines. Your client further understands that the sentence to be imposed is a matter solely within the discretion of the Court. Your client acknowledges that the Court is not obligated to follow any recommendation of the Government at the time of sentencing or to grant a downward departure based on your client?s substantial assistance to the Government, even if the Government ?les a motion pursuant to .1 of the Sentencing Guidelines. Your client understands that neither the Government?s recommendation nor the Sentencing Guidelines are binding on the Court. Your client acknowledges that your client?s entry of a guilty plea to the charged offense authorizes the Court to impose any sentence, up to and including the statutory maximum sentence, which may be greater than the applicable Guidelines range. The Government cannot, and does not, make any promise or representation as to what sentence your client will receive. Moreover, it is understood that your client will have no right to withdraw your client?s plea of guilty should the Court impose a sentence that is outside the Guidelines range or if the Court does not follow your client?s or the Government?s sentencing recommendation. The Government and your client will be bound by this Agreement, regardless of the sentence imposed by the Court. Any effort by your client to withdraw her guilty plea because of the length of the sentence shall constitute a breach of this Agreement. 8. Conditions of Release Your client agrees not to object to the Govemment?s recommendation to the Court at the time of the plea of guilty in this case that your client be detained without bond pending your client?s sentencing in this case, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 3143. Case Document 67 Filed 12/13/18 Page 6 of 12 9. Waivers A. Trial Rights Your client understands that by pleading guilty in this case your client agrees to waive certain rights afforded by the Constitution of the United States and/or by statute or rule. Your client agrees to forego the right to any further discovery or disclosures of information not already provided at the time of the entry of your client?s guilty plea. Your client also agrees to waive, among other rights, the right to plead not guilty, and the right to a jury trial. If there were a jury trial, your client would have the right to be represented by counsel, to confront and cross? examine witnesses against your client, to challenge the admissibility of evidence offered against your client, to compel witnesses to appear for the purpose of testifying and presenting other evidence on your client?s behalf, and to choose whether to testify. If there were a jury trial and your client chose not to testify at that trial, your client would have the right to have the jury instructed that your client?s failure to testify could not be held against your client. Your client would further have the right to have the jury instructed that your client is presumed innocent until proven guilty, and that the burden would be on the United States to prove your client?s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. If your client were found guilty after a trial, your client would have the right to appeal your client?s conviction. Your client understands that the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States protects your client from the use of self-incriminating statements in a criminal prosecution. By entering a plea of guilty, your client knowingly and voluntarily waives or gives up your client?s right against self-incrimination. Your client acknowledges discussing with you Rule 11(t) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure and Rule 410 of the Federal Rules of Evidence, which ordinarily limit the admissibility of statements made by a defendant in the course of plea discussions or plea proceedings if a guilty plea is later withdrawn. Your client knowingly and voluntarily waives the rights that arise under these rules in the event your client withdraws your client?s guilty plea or withdraws from this Agreement after signing it. Your client also agrees to waive all constitutional and statutory rights to a speedy sentence and agrees that the plea of guilty pursuant to this Agreement will be entered at a time decided upon by the Government with the concurrence of the Court. Your client also agrees that the sentencing in this case may be delayed until your client?s cooperation has been completed, as determined by the Government, so that the Court will have the bene?t of all relevant information before a sentence is imposed. Your client understands that the date for sentencing will be set by the Court. B. Appeal Rights Your client agrees to waive, insofar as such waiver is permitted by law, the right to appeal the conviction in this case on any basis, including but not limited to claim(s) that the statute to which your client is pleading guilty is unconstitutional, and (2) the admitted conduct does not fall within the scope of the statute. Your client understands that federal law, speci?cally 18 U.S.C. 3742, affords defendants the right to appeal their sentences in certain circumstances. Your client also agrees to waive the right to appeal the sentence in this case, Case Document 67 Filed 12/13/18 Page 7 of 12 including but not limited to any term of imprisonment, ?ne, forfeiture, award of restitution, term or condition of supervised release, authority of the Court to set conditions of release, and the manner in which the sentence was determined, except to the extent the Court sentences your client above the statutory maximum or guidelines range determined by the Court. In agreeing to this waiver, your client is aware that your client?s sentence has yet to be determined by the Court. Realizing the uncertainty in estimating what sentence the Court ultimately will impose, your client knowingly and willingly waives your client?s right to appeal the sentence, to the extent noted above, in exchange for the concessions made by the Government in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the above agreement to waive the right to appeal the conviction and sentence, your client retains the right to appeal on the basis of ineffective assistance of counsel, but not to raise on appeal other issues regarding the conviction or sentence. C. Collateral Attack Your client also waives any right to challenge the conviction entered or sentence imposed under this Agreement or otherwise attempt to modify or change the sentence or the manner in which it was determined in any collateral attack, including, but not limited to, a motion brought under 28 U.S.C. 2255 or Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 60(b), except to the extent such a motion is based on newly discovered evidence or on a claim that your client received ineffective assistance of counsel. Your client reserves the right to ?le a motion brought under 18 U.S.C. 3582(c)(2), but agrees to waive the right to appeal the denial of such a motion. D. Witness Fees Your client further agrees to waive all rights, claims, or interest in any witness fee that your client may be eligible to receive pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1821 for your client?s appearance at any grand jury, witness conference, or court proceeding, during the course of your client?s cooperation pursuant to this Agreement or any term of your client?s incarceration. 10. Use of Self-Incriminating Information The Government agrees pursuant to U.S.S.G. 1B1 that self -incriminating information provided by your client pursuant to this Agreement or during the course of debrie?ngs conducted in anticipation of this Agreement, and about which the Government had no prior knowledge or insuf?cient proof in the absence of your client?s admissions, will not be used by the Government at the time of sentencing for the purpose of determining the applicable guideline range. However, all self-incriminating information provided by your client may be used for the purposes and in accordance with the terms identi?ed in U.S.S.G. 11. Cooperation Your client agrees to cooperate with the Of?ce of the United States Attorney for the District of Columbia on the following terms and conditions: Your client shall c00perate fully, truthfully, completely and with this Of?ce and other Federal, state and local law enforcement authorities identi?ed by this Of?ce in Case Document 67 Filed 12/13/18 Page 8 of 12 any and all matters as to which the Government deems the cooperation relevant. Your client acknowledges that your client?s cooperation may include, but will not necessarily be limited to: answering questions; providing sworn written statements; taking govemment?administered polygraph examination(s); and participating in covert law enforcement activities. Any refusal by your client to cooperate fully, truthfully, completely and as directed by this Of?ce and other Federal, state and local law enforcement authorities identified by this Of?ce in any and all matters in which the Government deems your client?s assistance relevant will constitute a breach of this Agreement by your client, and will relieve the Government of its obligations under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, its obligation to inform this Court and the Departure Guidelines Committee of the United States Attorney?s Of?ce for the District of Columbia of any assistance your client has provided. Your client agrees, however, that such breach by your client will not constitute a basis for withdrawal of your client?s plea of guilty or otherwise relieve your client of your client?s obligations under this Agreement. Your client shall turn over to the Government, or other law enforcement authorities, or direct such law enforcement authorities to, any and all evidence of crimes about which your client is aware; all contraband and proceeds of such crimes; and all assets traceable to the proceeds of such crimes. Your client agrees to the forfeiture of all assets which are proceeds of crimes or traceable to such proceeds of crimes. Your client shall submit a full and complete accounting of all your client?s ?nancial assets, whether such assets are in your client?s name or in the name of a third party. Your client acknowledges and understands that, during the course of the cooperation outlined in this Agreement, your client will be interviewed by law enforcement agents and/or Government attorneys. Your client waives any right to have counsel present during these interviews and agrees to meet with law enforcement agents and Government attorneys outside of the presence of counsel. If, at some future point, you or your client desire to have counsel present during interviews by law enforcement agents and/or Government attorneys, and you communicate this decision in writing to this Of?ce, the Government will honor this request, and this change will have no effect on any other terms and conditions of this Agreement. (6) Your client shall testify fully, completely and truthfully before any and all Grand Juries in the District of Columbia and elsewhere, and at any and all trials of cases or other court proceedings in the District of Columbia and elsewhere, at which your client?s testimony may be deemed relevant by the Government. Your client understands and acknowledges that nothing in this Agreement allows your client to commit any criminal violation of local, state or federal law during the period of your client?s cooperation with law enforcement authorities or at any time prior to the sentencing in this case. The commission of a criminal offense during the period of your client?s cooperation or at any time prior to sentencing will constitute a breach of this Agreement and will relieve the Government of all ofits obligations under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, its obligation to inform this Court and the Departure Guidelines Committee of the United States Attomey?s Of?ce for the District of Columbia of any assistance your client has provided. However, your client acknowledges and agrees that such a breach of this Agreement will not Case Document 67 Filed 12/13/18 Page 9 of 12 entitle your client to withdraw your client?s plea of guilty or relieve your client of the obligations under this Agreement. 12. Immigration Issues Your client recognizes that because your client is not a citizen of the United States, your client?s guilty plea and conviction make it very likely that your client?s deportation from the United States is presumptively mandatory and that, at a minimum, your client is at risk of being deported or suffering other adverse immigration consequences. Your client acknowledges discussing the possible immigration consequences (including deportation) of this guilty plea and conviction with you. Your client af?rms that your client wants to plead guilty regardless of any immigration consequences that may result from the guilty plea and conviction, even if those consequences include deportation from the United States. It is agreed that your client will have no right to withdraw this guilty plea based on any actual or perceived adverse immigration consequences (including deportation) resulting from the guilty plea and conviction. It is further agreed that your client will not challenge your client?s conviction or sentence on direct appeal, or through litigation under 28 U.S.C 2255 and/or 2241, on the basis of any actual or perceived adverse immigration consequences (including deportation) resulting from your client?s guilty plea and conviction. 13. Interpreter Your client agrees that if an interpreter is required to assist your client in translating this Agreement into your client?s native language, then your client agrees to request the Court, pursuant to ?The Court Interpreter?s Act,? 28 U.S.C. 1827, to secure the services of a certi?ed interpreter at the Court?s expense to verbally translate this Agreement and related documents for your client into your client?s native language. If no such request is made, then your client hereby declares that your client understands the English language suf?ciently well to read and understand this Agreement, or that this Agreement has been read to your client in your client?s native language and that your client therefore understands this Agreement. 14. Breach of Agreement Your client understands and agrees that, if after entering this Agreement, your client fails speci?cally to perform or to ful?ll completely each and every one of your client?s obligations under this Agreement, or engages in any criminal activity prior to sentencing, your client will have breached this Agreement. In the event of such a breach: the Government will be free from its obligations under this Agreement; your client will not have the right to withdraw the guilty plea; (0) your client will be fully subject to criminal prosecution for any other crimes, including perjury and obstruction of justice; no motion pursuant to Section .1 of the Sentencing Guidelines or 18 U.S.C. 3553(c) will be ?led or sought; and the Government will be free to use against your client, directly and indirectly, in any criminal or civil proceeding, all statements made by your client and any of the information or materials provided by your client, including such statements, information and materials provided pursuant to this Agreement or during the course of any debrie?ngs conducted in anticipation of, or after entry of, this Agreement, whether or not the debrie?ngs were previously characterized as ?off?the-record? Case Document 67 Filed 12/13/18 Page 10 of 12 debrie?ngs, and including your client?s statements made during proceedings before the Court pursuant to Rule 11 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure. Your client understands and agrees that the Government shall be required to prove a breach of this Agreement only by a preponderance of the evidence, except where such breach is based on a violation of federal, state, or local criminal law, which the Government need prove only by probable cause in order to establish a breach of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to permit your client to commit perjury, to make false statements or declarations, to obstruct justice, or to protect your client from prosecution for any crimes not included within this Agreement or committed by your client after the execution of this Agreement. Your client understands and agrees that the Government reserves the right to prosecute your client for any such offenses. Your client further understands that any perjury, false statements or declarations, or obstruction of ustice relating to your client?s obligations under this Agreement shall constitute a breach of this Agreement. In the event of such a breach, your client will not be allowed to withdraw your client?s guilty plea. 15. Government?s Obligations The Government will bring to the Court?s attention at the time of sentencing the nature and extent of your client?s cooperation or lack of cooperation. The Departure Guideline Committee of the United States Attorney?s Of?ce for the District of Columbia will evaluate the full nature and extent of your client?s cooperation to determine whether your client has provided substantial assistance in the investigation or prosecution of another person who has committed an offense. If the Departure Guideline Committee determines that your client has provided such substantial assistance. this Of?ce shall ?le a departure motion pursuant to Section 5K1.1 of the Sentencing Guidelines, which would afford your client an opportunity to persuade the Court that your client should be sentenced to a lesser period of incarceration and/or ?ne than indicated by the Sentencing Guidelines. The determination of whether your client has provided substantial assistance warrantng the ?ling of a motion pursuant to Section 5K1.1 of the Sentencing Guidelines is within the sole discretion of the United States Attomey?s Of?ce for the District of Columbia and is not reviewable by the Court. In the event your client should fail to perform speci?cally and ful?ll completely each and every one of your client?s obligations under this Agreement, the Government will be free from its obligations under this Agreement, and will have no obligation to present your client?s case to the Departure Guideline Committee or ?le a departure motion pursuant to Section 5K1 .1 of the Sentencing Guidelines. 16. Complete Agreement No agreements, promises, understandings, or representations have been made by the parties or their counsel other than those contained in writing herein, nor will any such agreements, promises, understandings, or representations be made unless committed to writing and signed by your client, defense counsel, and an Assistant United States Attorney for the District of Columbia. 10 Case Document 67 Filed 12/13/18 Page 11 of 12 Your client further understands that this Agreement is binding only upon the Criminal and Superior Court Divisions of the United States Attorney?s Of?ce for the District of Columbia. This Agreement does not bind the Civil Division of this Of?ce or any other United States Attomey?s Of?ce, nor does it bind any other state, local? or federal prosecutor. It also does not bar or compromise any civil, tax, or administrative claim pending or that may be made against your client. If the foregoing terms and conditions are satisfactory, your client may so indicate by signing this Agreement and the Statement of Offense.
