Marshal?s executing the warrant. Subject Telephone A cellular telephone serviced by Verizon Wireless, assigned telephone number 832- 763-5555 (hereinafter referred to as the ?Subject Telephone FOR THE FOLLOWING S: This tracking device search warrant is for the purpose of receiving information ??om the use of the Target Telephone(s), including but not limited to real?time tracking of location data from ?pen register?, satellite GPS and/or latitude and longitude cellular tower data concerning the Target Telephone(s). The use of a cell-site simulator on cellular telephone provider(s) known as: Verizon Wireless number 832?763- 5555 upon the request of Inspectors of the United States Marshals Service, shall provide the following information and services without delay the use of: A cell-site Simulator constitutes a "pen register" device within the meaning of Title 18, United States Code, Section 3127(3), in that it is "a device or process which records or decodes dialing, routing, addressing, or signaling information transmitted by an instrument or facility ?om which a wire or electronic communication is transmitted. The United States Marshals Service may, at their discretion, employ electronic investigative techniques, including a cell?site simulator, to detect radio signals that are emitted automatically at the time a cell phone is turned on, and periodically thereafter as long as the phone remains on, regardless of whether a call is being made, to communicate with the cellular in?astructure, including cell towers. These signals contain identifying numbers for the telephone g, the Electronic Serial Number or International Mobile Subscriber Identi?cation number). The investigative agency(ies) would use these techniques to identify the location from which the target cellular telephone is operating. The techniques do not intercept the content of communications, but rather search for signals emitted by the target cellular device, which are identi?ed through its identifying numbers (which are already known to law enforcement through other means). Any cell- site simulator used is not con?gured to provide subscriber account information (for example, an account holder?s name, address, or telephone number). Once the target cellular device?s signals are identi?ed, the strength of the signal emitted by the target cellular telephone can be analyzed to ascertain the general direction and location of the signal, which can assist in identifying the general location from which the subject cellular telephone is operating. The investigative agency(ies) may continue thru a period of thirty (3 0) days from the date this Warrant is ?led by the court . The target cellular device and other cellular devices in the area might experience a temporary disruption of service ?om the service provider as a result of use of a cell-site simulator. Any potential service disruption to non?target devices would be temporary and all operations will be conducted to ensure the minimal amount of interference to non-target devices. FID 9887548 C88 5555 USCH 002339 IT IS FURTHER REQUESTED, that the use of a cell?site similar by the investigative agency(ies) shall not store any information (unique identi?ers) collected from any non?target device longer than necessary to distinguish the target device from non-target devices. All data will be deleted as soon as the target device is located, and no less than once daily. Further, the investigative agency(ies) will make no af?rmative investigative use of any non-target device data absent ?irther order of the court. The use of a cell?site simulator, as described herein, does not require physical intrusion or trespass into any private Space. Therefore, it is also requested that the U.S. Marshal Service be permitted to use a cell?site simulator at times determined by the Senior Inspector and investigators, including any time, day or night without geographic limitation. IT IS FURTHER REQUESTED, with Good cause having been shown, pursuant to CA Penal Code 629.66, that this entire Search Warrant to include the Affidavit and Warrant, be sealed until otherwise ordered by the Court, that the identity of any target(s) of the underlying criminal investigation may be redacted ?om any copy of this Warrant to be served on any service provider or other person, and that the local, long distance and wireless carriers and their representatives, agents and employees, nor law enforcement of?cials shall not disclose in any manner, directly or indirectly, by any action or inaction, the existence of this Warrant or the existence of the above-described investigation, to the listed subscriber for the Subject Telephone Numbers, the occupant of said premises, the subscribers of the incoming calls to or outgoing calls ?om the Subject Telephone Numbers, or to any other person, in full or redacted form, unless or until otherwise ordered by the 001111. IT IS FURTHER REQUESTED, Probable Cause having been shown, pursuant to CA Penal Code 1546.2, the noti?cation be delayed for 90 days based on the statement in the attached af?davit and a ?nding of adverse results in that it would serious jeopardize the ongoing investigation and undue delay of trail causing the fugitive of the investigation to ?ee from prosecution. Upon arrest of the fugitive, if located before the 90 day expiration period, the af?ant of the U.S. Marshals Service shall ?le a return to the warrant within 10 calendar days and serve a copy of the warrant to the authorized handler of the device and the notice of the nature of the government?s investigation. EXPERTISE In the experience of SA Stonie Carlson, ?agitives, their family and close associates communicate with each other via cell phone or social media through multiple accounts and cellular devices. This method of communication is employed to assist the fugitive in avoid being detected by law enforcement. As chronicled in past investigations, it is the experience of SA Stonie Carlson these set of behaviors and actions provide the bearings to avert all contact with law enforcement. Based on my experience, SA Stonie Carlson has worked hundreds of cases in which ?t it ives FID 9887548 C85 5555 USCH 002340 - In t!e experience 0! Etonie Carlson, ?igitives will continue to keep in contact with close family and friends via cell phone. Furthermore, if the ?Jgitive of justice or user of the Subject Telephone is informed that a warrant has been executed to allow for a tracking on the Sub'eot Tele hone it would alert user/subscriber and stigation. As a result 0 noti cation, here will be a ay in appre iension of the fugitive causing prolonged Flight ?om Prosecution, serious jeopardy to an investigation, or unjust delay of trial. APPLICATION AND STATEMENT OF PROBABLE CAUSE 1. The United States Marshals Service hereby apply for a Search Warrant/Order authorizing 1) the use of a Cell?Site Simulator device for a period of thirty (30) days on Verizon Wireless telephone number(s) 832-763-5555 (hereinafter the Subject Telephone Number(s); to aid in locating and apprehending a suspect wanted for a violation of CA PC-484 PC?Forge Access Card to De?aud/Counterfeiting. The information received by this Warrant is relevant to the above listed investigation. This application is based on the attached af?davit of SA Stonie Carlson of the United States Marshals Service Paci?c Southwest Regional Fugitive Task Force. 2. The Oakland Police Department is currently investigating CHANTA HOPKINS, aka MOHAMMED ASKARI AQUIL (a male black born 11/17/1981 known to Alameda County as BBH115) for credit card counterfeiting and ?rearms violations. On 20 August 2015, at about 0030 hours OPD Of?cers were dispatched to 1389 Jefferson St. Apt. D612 on a report of discovered ?rearms (by Bail Bonds) and electronic machines used to commit credit card fraud. It has been con?rmed that Chanta HOpkins lived at 1389 Jefferson St. Apt D612, Oakland, Ca, at the time of the incident. Hopkins was not at the residence upon arrival of police. The ?rearms (4) were collected and turned into the OPD property section (report 15-044318). Chanta Hepkins has two felony warrants issued out for his arrest. Failure to appear for counterfeiting and burglary/459 out of Roseville, CA. Chanta Hopkins is also on probation for 23152 VC and with terms of P5. 3. Roseville PD conducted a counterfeit investigation concerning HOpkins. On July 7, 2013 Roseville PD conducted a vehicle stop on Hopkins and two other individuals. A search was conducted and Hopkins was found to have ?'audulent credit cards in his possession. Hopkins was arrested for 484 PC (report 4. On August 19 2015, at about 1400 hours, Chanta Hopkins was spotted by_ - driving V-l (2015, Audi, Q7, black in color (license plate in the 17 of Jefferson St. Once OPD marked patrol vehicles closed distance in an attempt to conduct a vehicle stop, Hopkins ?ed the area at a high rate of speed-violating multiple traf?c laws in an attempt to avoid contact with police. It was apparent to ?that Chanta Hopkins had knowledge that the police were attempting to contact him and he ?ed in an attempt to avoid arrest. 5. ATF Agent Jackie Cunningham noti?ed OPD that Hopkins obtained the 2015 Audi Q7 (License plate 7GDM674) by fraudulent means. This vehicle has since been seized by law enforcement and returned to the ?nance corporation. 6. -184 advised that Chanta Hopkins was also in possession of a Mercedes Benz, Maybach, black in color The vehicle has since been recovered and returned to the registered owner. Hopkins utilized fraudulent identi?cation in order to obtain the Mercedes from the registered owner. FID 9887548 C88 5555 USCH 002341 7. Based upon the outstanding warrants, as well as the aforementioned criminal acts conducted within get City of Oakland, it is believed, Chanta Hopkins is currently residing/staying in Alameda County. 8. SA Carlson identi?ed cellular telephone number as 832- 763-5555. The 9. On April 5, 2016, US. Marshal Service ersonnel observed and attempted to arrest-while .was standing in front of?Oakland, CA.

While in possession of -cellular received several incoming calls from cellular telephone number 832-763-5555. 11. On April 5, 2016, SA Carlson presented and swore to a search warrant of -cellular telephone signed by Honorable Gordon S. Baranco, Alameda County Superior Court Judge. At this point during the investigation attempts to search -ellular telephone have met with negative results at the phone is password protected. 12. A ?le check on the number'using law enforcement telephone number search engine) was conducted. The number was issued to an unknown subscriber. The cellphone provider is Verizon Wireless 180 Washington Valley Road, Bedminster, NJ 7921. 13. Based on my training, experience, and knowledge of this investigation, I believe that the Target Telephone is in possession of fugitive Chanta Hopkins, aka Mohamrned Askari Aquil and the following records and these records will further this investigation. 14. Based on the information provided in this application, I believe that the disclosure of the requested Court Order may result in the ?ight from potential prosecution or the destruction of or tampering with evidence, or may otherwise seriously jeopardize the investigation. Therefore, pursuant to California Penal Code Section 629.66, I further request that the Court Seal this record and direct the local, long distance and wireless carriers listed in the prOposed Warrant, to include law enforcement of?cials, ?led concurrently herewith, and their representatives, agents and employees, not to disclose in any manner, to the listed subscriber for the Subject Telephone Number(s), or to any other person, the existence of this Order, in full or redacted form, or of this investigation unless otherwise ordered by this court. 15. Based on my training and eXperience, I know that fugitives often move around at all hours of the day and night in order to avoid law enforcement detection because of this, fugitives are often unpredictable when and where they decide to rest 16. I request that law enforcement of?cers executing this warrant be excused from the immediate receipt requirement of Penal Code section 1535. If the ?igitive or user of the Subject Telephone was aware that a warrant was executed to allow for a tracking of the Subject Telephone(s) with the use of a cell-site simulator it would alert the userfsubscriber to law enforcement?s ongoing FID 9887548 C33 5555 USCH 002342 y/ based on the facts stated herein and the ongoing investigation, that the Court authorize noti?cation of the search warrant (pursuant to Penal Code section 1528 through 1535) to be limited only to the wireless carrier(s). JUSTIFICATION FOR DELAY OF NOTIFICATION COURT ORDER PURSUANT TO A FINDING OF PROBABLE CAUSE UNDER CALIFORNIA PENAL CODE 1546.2; I, SA Stonie Carlson, hereby applies to this Court, pursuant to Section of the Penal Code, for an order delaying for 90 days the noti?cation required by Section 1546.2(a) of the Penal Code in connection with this Search Warrant requested on April 7, 2016 that was issued to obtain electronic information records pertaining to Subject Telephone Number (3) 832-763-5555, believed to be in possession of CHANTA HOPKINS aka MOHAMMEDA ASKARI AQUIL, which will help aid in the investigation on CHANTA HOPKINS aka MOHAMMEDA ASKARI AQUIL whereabouts. It is FURTHER REQUESTED pursuant to CA Penal Code 1546.2 that based on the supporting Af?davit, the Court delay the noti?cation for a period of ninety (90) days justi?ed by the following adverse results because it is believe that the notice will: 1. LEAD TO FURTHER FLIGHT FROM PROSECUTION and 2. OTHERWISE SERIOUSLY JEOPARDIZE AN INVESTIGATION OR UNDULY DELAY A TRIAL. Based upon the above listed facts and circumstances, I believe there is evidence the fugitive is currently in possession of the aforementioned cellular device (832) 763-5555. I also believe that evidence of the fugitive?s whereabouts will be located with the information requested in this affidavit, ultimately leading to an arrest and ensuring public safety.
