DECISION AND ORDER
McCARTHY, United States Magistrate Judge.
This Decision and Order attempts to reconcile what appears to be conflicting Second Circuit precedent concerning the authority of a magistrate judge in the district of arrest to conduct a detention hearing pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3142(f) prior to defendant's removal to the district of prosecution. For the reasons discussed herein, I conclude that I do have that authority.
