Publisher Description
Defendant Earl McLennan appeals from his conviction, under 18 U.S.C. § 3,1 as an accessory after the fact to Jamiel Chagra's August 23, 1979 bail jump.2 McLennan was tried by a jury in April 1981, found guilty, and sentenced to a one-year prison term. This appeal followed. The parties stipulated in the district court that in 1979 Jamiel Chagra was released on bail by the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas; that Chagra was present at an August 15, 1979 hearing where he was ordered to appear at an August 23 hearing on a government motion to increase his bail; that when Chagra failed to report as required to a probation officer on August 21, his bail was revoked and a higher bail set; and that he ""willfully"" failed to attend the scheduled August 23 bail hearing. A warrant then issued for his arrest. McLennan further stipulated that Chagra was apprehended some six months later in Las Vegas, Nevada.
