Federal 7th Circuit Court
Criminal Court
Sentencing
Defendant was found guilty of drug-distribution, firearm, and financial crimes and was initially sentenced to life in prison plus five years. The district court later vacated that sentenced and imposed a 360-month term of imprisonment and defendant appealed from that sentence, challenging the sentencing guidelines and the court’s calculation of his sentence. The Seventh Circuit affirmed, finding that defendant’s challenges lacked merit. (EASTERBROOK and SCUDDER, concurring)
