COMES NOWAraceli Mendoza, PRETRIAL SERVICES OFFICER, presenting an official report upon the conduct
of defendant, Even Barajas-Martinez, 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 20th day of June 2023, under the following
conditions:
Standard Condition #8: Defendant shall refrain from the 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 #4: Defendant shall refrain from any use of alcohol.
RESPECTFULLY PRESENTING PETITION FOR ACTION OF COURT FOR CAUSE AS FOLLOWS:
On July 3, and 28, 2023, the conditions of pretrial supervision were reviewed and signed with Mr. Barajas-Martinez
acknowledging his understanding of his conditions.
Violation #1: Mr. Barajas-Martinez is alleged to have violated his pretrial release conditions by consuming cocaine on or
before July 28, 2023.
On July 28, 2023, Mr. Barajas-Martinez reported to the probation office and submitted to a urinalysis (UA). The sample
returned presumptive positive for cocaine. The defendant denied consuming the controlled substance and signed an
admission/denial form denying the use of cocaine. Mr. Barajas-Martinez expressed to this officer that he believed another
member of his band had a “grudge against him,” and was attempting to “sabotage” him by possibly adding cocaine to the
defendant's Coca-Cola drink during practice a couple days prior. Therefore, the sample was sent to Alere Toxicology
Services, Incorporated (Alere) for confirmation.
On August 6, 2023, Alere reported Mr. Barajas-Martinez’s UA to be confirmed positive for cocaine.
Violation #2: Mr. Barajas-Martinez is alleged to have violated his pretrial release conditions by consuming alcohol on July
26, 2023.
On July 28, 2023, Mr. Barajas-Martinez reported to the probation office and submitted to a UA. After the defendant was
informed the UA would be sent to the national laboratory for controlled substance confirmation and alcohol screening, Mr.
Martinez-Barajas disclosed to this officer that he consumed alcohol during band practice on July 26, 2023. The defendant
signed a drug use admission/denial form admitting to consuming alcohol on July 26, 2023.
