United States v. Candace Zie

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Candace Marie Zie appeals from the district court’s judgment revoking supervised release. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Zie contends that her admission that she tested positive on two occasions to having methamphetamine in her system was not voluntary. She contends that she was coerced into admitting the violations by the district court’s implied threat of a longer sentence if she put the government to its burden. This argument fails. The record reflects that, before the court made the challenged statements, Zie was prepared to admit to violating the terms of her supervised release by testing positive. Thus, Zie has not shown that her admission resulted from coercion.

AFFIRMED.
