USA v. Bertucci

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF NEBRASKA
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff,
vs.
ANTONIO BERTUCCI,
Defendant.
8:19CR169
ORDER ON APPEARANCE FOR
SUPERVISED RELEASE VIOLATION
The defendant appeared before the Court on March 10, 2026 regarding Second Amended
Petition for Offender Under Supervision [99]. Jeffrey Thomas represented the defendant. Mikala
Purdy-Steenholdt represented the government. 	The defendant was advised of the alleged
violation(s) of supervised release, right to retain or appointment of counsel, and any right to a
preliminary hearing in accordance with Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 32.1(a)(3).
The government made an oral motion to dismiss Amended Petition for Offender Under
Supervision [93] and Petition for Offender Under Supervision [81]. The government’s oral motion
to dismiss Amended Petition for Offender Under Supervision [93] and Petition for Offender Under
Supervision [81] is granted without objection.
The defendant freely, knowingly, intelligently, and voluntarily waived the right to a
preliminary hearing. Fed. R. Crim. P. 32.1(b)(1)(A). The Court finds probable cause as alleged
in the petition to believe the defendant violated the terms of supervised release and the defendant
should be held to answer for a final dispositional hearing. Fed. R. Crim. P. 32.1(b)(1)(C). The
defendant shall appear personally for a final dispositional hearing before U.S. District Judge Brian
C. Buescher in Courtroom No. 5, Roman L. Hruska U.S. Courthouse, 111 South 18th Plaza,
Omaha, Nebraska, at 9:00 a.m. on April 23, 2026.
The government moved for detention based upon risk of flight and danger. The defendant
submitted on the issue of detention. The court finds that the defendant failed to meet his burden
to establish by clear and convincing evidence that he will not flee or pose a danger to any other
person or to the community. 	Fed. R. Crim. P. 32.1(a)(6); 18 U.S.C. § 3143(a)(1). 	The
government’s motion for detention is granted as to risk of flight and danger and the defendant shall
be detained until further order of the Court.
