Rico v. United States · ¶6

Isabel Rico's encounter with these rules is long and complex. In 2010, she pleaded guilty to federal drug trafficking charges and was sentenced to seven years in prison followed by four years of supervised release. App. to Pet. for Cert. 11a (App.); Brief for Petitioner 8. Only a few months after leaving prison in January 2017, Ms. Rico violated her supervised release conditions. As a result, the judge revoked her release, sent her back to prison for two months, and ordered her to serve another 42-month term of supervised release. App. 11a. Per the judge's order, that new supervised release term was slated to expire in June 2021 (an important date, as we will soon see). See ibid.
