Defendant Abraham Jacob Alkhabaz, also known as Jake Baker, was indicted for transmitting threatening communications in interstate commerce under 18 U.S.C. Sec. 875(c). Following his indictment, he was ordered to be detained pending trial, a decision he is appealing. The government seeks to uphold the district court's detention ruling and has filed an emergency motion to prevent the defendant's future release on bond.

The appeal court reviewed the record and found that the district court's determination—that no release conditions could ensure the safety of others or the community—was not clearly erroneous. As a result, the detention order issued on February 10, 1995, is affirmed. Additionally, the emergency motion from the government is denied, with the stipulation that the district court retains the ability to reconsider the release order if new evidence or considerations arise.
