Federal 7th Circuit Court
Criminal Court
Sentencing
Dist. Ct. did not err in imposing 78-month term of incarceration on unlawful possession of firearm charges even though defendant argued that he was entitled to below-guideline sentence because he was 70 years old at time of sentence. Instant sentence was reasonable where record showed that defendant was in good health at time of sentencing and was physically capable of continuing indefinitely to engage in unlawful activities. Ct. further observed that defendant’s age and physical condition did not turn his sentence into de facto life sentence.
