Note on plea agreements: Current policy in the Western District of Missouri is to file a separate non-public addendum with the court in cases where a defendant is a cooperating individual eligible for a possible rule 35 and/or 5K1.1 departure of the sentence. The plea agreement on file with PACER viewable here usually does not indicate one way or the other whether such an agreement is in place and may not therefore represent the full scope of the agreement between the government and the defendant in any particular case.
