UNITED STATES OF AMERICA v. WALTER NOBLE EDWARDS, JR.
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION CONCERNING PLEA OF GUILTY
WALTER NOBLE EDWARDS, JR., by consent, under authority of United States v. Dees, 125 F.3d 261 (5th Cir. 1997), has appeared before me pursuant to Fed. R. Crim. P. 11, and has entered a plea of guilty to the Indictment. After cautioning and examining WALTER NOBLE EDWARDS, JR., under oath concerning each of the subjects mentioned in Rule 11, I determined that the guilty plea was knowledgeable and voluntary and that the offenses charged are supported by an independent basis in fact containing each of the essential elements of such offense. I therefore recommend that the plea of guilty be accepted and that WALTER NOBLE EDWARDS, JR., be adjudged guilty and have sentence imposed accordingly. Date: September 18, 2015.
