United States v. Santiago

Court of Appeals for the First Circuit

1Opinion of the Court

THOMPSON, Circuit Judge.

Defendant Juan José Santiago was sentenced to twelve months in prison and ten years’ supervised release after pleading guilty to one count of failing to register as a sex offender. The terms of Santiago’s supervised release included a series of special sex offender conditions, which he now seeks to vacate. There is merit to some, but not all, of Santiago’s claims of error. In short, while a waiver of appeal serves to defeat the bulk of Santiago’s challenges, we vacate one of the conditions of supervised release, which was imposed in Santiago’s absence.
