Judge Mark Kay Vyskocil held a

he is 33, and a citizen of the
US. Judge Vyskocil, when the
time came, asked Palmer's CJA
lawyer to go with him into a
breakout room to explain the
possible immigration
consequences of the plea.
One of the
charges he pleaded guilty to
carries at 111 to 121 months
guideline
sentence.
The AUSA
described the use of GPS on
the cab, on Palmer's phone and
the shut off of the engine as
the evidence.

and set sentencing for August
31.
