Defendant seeks the records connected to the Wyandotte County prosecution because
they “are material and necessary for the proper preparation for trial upon the above captioned
cause” and “are part and parcel of the same activities charged in” this matter. Id. He avers
“certain evidence against defendant, including the statements made by defendant, may well
amount to forbidden fruit of the poisonous tree of an unlawful arrest.” Id. Defendant claims
none of the reports related to the Wyandotte County charges have been produced in this matter.
Id. Thus, Defendant asks that the Court direct the Wyandotte County, Kansas Assistant District
Attorney and the Kansas City, Kansas Police Department to “produce all of their records
pertaining to Daniel Solorio.”

Id. at 5.

First, the Court finds Defendant’s motion lacks specificity. Defendant’s request for all
“records pertaining to Daniel Solorio” is not limited in any fashion. Defendant fails to state a
period of time, does not list the specific documents he seeks, and does not provide “with
reasonable precision the subjects to which the documents relate.” United States v. Hang, 75 F.3d
1275, 1283 (8th Cir. 1996) (finding the defendant failed to “identify by name the documents
desired”); United States v. Burkhalter, No. 18-00036-01/02-CR-W-BCW, 2020 WL 4717577, at
*3 (W.D. Mo. Aug. 13, 2020) (finding the Government’s request for a subpoena for “records
maintained in the central or institutional file” and “all records related” to two individuals “failed
to meet the requirements of relevance and specificity”). Because Defendant fails to specify the
information and documents sought, the Court DENIES his motion.
In addition, the Court finds Defendant fails to establish the records he seeks are relevant.
At best, Defendant argues the records could show a co-defendant in this matter may be the

“Daniel Solorio” is one of several monikers allegedly used by Defendant. See Doc. 16. But
Defendant does not explain why he seeks records related to Daniel Solorio and not Juan
Guzman. Additionally, Defendant does not set forth identifying information, such as a year of
birth and/or address, that would be included in any subpoena to be issued. Thus, it is unclear
how the recipient of the requested subpoena duces tecum would be able to identify the individual
about whom the records are sought.

Defendant requests the Court direct Roehler and Kinsey produce these records “by not later
than May 2, 2014.” Doc. 148, at 5. This date appears to have been included in error because,
later in the motion, Defendant asks that records be produced by October 20, 2020. Id. Although
the second date appears to be Defendant’s intended production date, the Court notes said date
was eleven days after his motion was filed, and therefore, did not account for the Government’s
fourteen-day response deadline or the recipients having a reasonable opportunity to be served
with and respond to the subpoena.
