Petition for Action on Conditions of Pretrial Release
COMES NOWChris Heinen, PRETRIAL SERVICES OFFICER, presenting an official report upon the conduct
of defendant William H. Cameron, who was placed under pretrial release supervision by the Honorable U.S. Magistrate
Judge Alexander C. Ekstrom sitting in the court at Spokane, Washington, on the 28th day of September 2022, under the
following conditions:
Standard Condition #8: Defendant shall refrain from use or unlawful possession of a narcotic drug or other controlled
substances defined in 21 U.S.C. § 802, unless prescribed by a licensed medical practitioner in conformance with Federal
law. Defendant may not use or possess marijuana, regardless of whether Defendant has been authorized medical marijuana
under state law.
Special Condition #5: Defendant shall submit to random urinalysis and Breathalyzer testing as directed by the United States
Probation/Pretrial Services Office. Defendant shall refrain from obstructing or attempting to obstruct or tamper, in any
fashion, with the efficiency and accuracy of any prohibited substance testing which is required as a condition of release.
RESPECTFULLY PRESENTING PETITION FOR ACTION OF COURT FOR CAUSE AS FOLLOWS:
On September 30, 2022, the conditions of pretrial release supervision were reviewed with Mr. William H. Cameron. He
acknowledged an understanding of his conditions as ordered by the Court.
Violation #5: Mr. Cameron is alleged to have violated standard condition number 8 by ingesting methamphetamine, on at
least four separate occasions occurring between February 24 and February 25, 2023, based on both urinalysis testing and
his admission of such use.
On February 27, 2023, Mr. Cameron contacted the undersigned officer via text messaging, indicating that he had both
acquired a new phone, and inquiring if he could report on the morning of February 28, 2023, indicating that he would really
like to speak with the undersigned officer. Mr. Cameron was directed to be prepared to submit to urinalysis testing, following
which he indicated that he would, and also indicated that this was what he wanted to speak to this officer about, having had
a "slip up" that had occurred over the weekend.
On February 28, 2023, Mr. Cameron reported as directed, and did submit to urinalysis testing, the result of which proved
presumptive positive for methamphetamine. Mr. Cameron ultimately admitted to having ingested methamphetamine once
initially on the evening of Friday (February 24, 2023) after his having experienced continued frustration working with several
coworkers. Mr. Cameron then admitted to using three separate times on Saturday (February 25, 2023) indicating that he
needed to make it through the work day and was in fear of "crashing" given his use the night prior. Mr. Cameron did sign
a drug use admission form serving to document his admission and clarified that his use all occurred from the same "bowl"
clarifying that he just continued to take puffs as needed from the same original amount.
Violation #6: Mr. Cameron is alleged to have violated special condition number 5 by failing to report for random urinalysis
testing with the contract provider on February 24, 2023, when his assigned color was called.
