_____________________________________________ :
ORDER OF DETENTION PENDING TRIAL
On November 20, 2025, Defendant Benjamin Kyle Spraggins appeared before the Court for an
initial appearance pursuant to Rule 5 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure. Because Defendant is
currently subject to state custody in connection with pending state charges, Defendant has waived
opposition to the Government’s motion for detention at this time. The Court therefore orders that Defendant
be detained in federal custody pending resolution of the charges in this case. Should the pending state
detention be resolved prior to the conclusion of this case, however, the Court will renew consideration of
bond or release at Defendant’s request.
Accordingly, the Defendant is hereby committed to the custody of the Attorney General of the
United States or her designated representative for confinement in a corrections facility separate, to the
extent practicable, from persons awaiting or serving sentences or being held in custody pending appeal.
Defendant shall be afforded reasonable opportunity for private consultation with defense counsel. On
order of a court of the United States or on request of an attorney for the Government, the person in charge
of the corrections facility shall deliver Defendant to the United States Marshal for the purpose of an
appearance in connection with a court proceeding.
SO ORDERED, this the 20th day of November, 2025.
