Federal 7th Circuit Court
Criminal Court
Sentencing
Dist. Ct. did not err in sentencing defendant to 210-month term of incarceration after defendant pleaded guilty to drug conspiracy charge after govt. had presented its case. Dist. Ct. was not required to credit defendant with 2-point reduction for acceptance of responsibility where guilty plea came during trial, and where defendant indicated that plea was motivated by desire to reduce his sentence, rather than desire to express remorse for crime. Moreover, Dist. Ct. could properly find that defendant had faked mental illness in attempt to delay trial or dismiss charge.
