PAUL STICKNEY, Magistrate Judge
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION CONCERNING PLEA OF GUILTY
DINORA SANDOVAL, 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 Count 1 of the Indictment. After cautioning and examining DINORA SANDOVAL under oath concerning each of the subjects mentioned in Rule 11, I determined that the guilty plea was knowledgeable and voluntary and that the offense charged is supported by an independent basis in fact containing each of the essential elements of such offense. I therefore recommend that the plea of guilty and plea agreement be accepted and that DINORA SANDOVAL be adjudged guilty and have sentence imposed accordingly.
