REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
CONCERNING PLEA OF GUILTY
The 	Defendant, 	Edward 	Lee 	Pruett, 	by 	consent, 	has 	appeared 	before 	the
undersigned pursuant to Rule 11 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, and has
entered a plea of guilty to Count One of the Indictment charging a violation of Title 21,

After cautioning and examining the Defendant under oath concerning each of the

recommends that the plea of guilty be accepted and that Defendant Edward Lee Pruett be
adjudged guilty and have sentence imposed accordingly.
DONE and ORDERED this 23rd day of October, 2024.
