Antonio Jovani Leon: AUSA Martinez

Quotes 

• AUSA Martinez : The People oppose bail and request remand, Your Honor.

  Fiona Duncan : Your Honor, my client presents no risk of flight.

  AUSA Martinez : That's ridiculous. The defendant was arrested after fleeing the murder scene in Mexico.

  Fiona Duncan : Those were extenuating circumstances. He'd been drugged against his will.

  AUSA Martinez : By failing to notify the FBI of his international travel, the defendant violated the Bureau protocol.

  Fiona Duncan : My client presents no flight risk. He has deep ties in this community. His mother suffers from Alzheimer's disease and schizophrenia and lives with him. He is solely responsible for her well-being. Additionally, he's been a decorated SSA with the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit for over a decade.

  AUSA Martinez : And as an FBI agent, he has contacts all over the world.

  Fiona Duncan : Agent Reid would be willing to turn over both his personal and government issued passports.

  AUSA Martinez : If he wanted a counterfeit passport, he could easily get one.

  Fiona Duncan : He has no criminal history.

  AUSA Martinez : The defendant is uniquely situated to evade law enforcement should he flee the jurisdiction.

  Fiona Duncan : Your Honor, he wants to stay here and clear his good name.

  AUSA Martinez : He should have thought about his good name before sneaking across the border.

  Fiona Duncan : I am prepared to present multiple law enforcement character witnesses on his behalf right now. The witnesses are here in the courtroom, all highly respected FBI agents.

  Judge Willa Frost : Simmer down, Ms. Duncan. It's almost 6:00 and I'm not inclined to hear from character witnesses. Actions speak louder than words, I always say.

  Fiona Duncan : We'd be willing to abide by a curfew and strict monitoring of his whereabouts at all times.

  Judge Willa Frost : Too little, too late, counselor. If past behavior is the best indicator of future conduct, and I do believe it is, then your client presents a flight risk. Bail is denied. Defendant will be remanded to federal custody pending trial.
