Overview: Life sentence imposed on defendant, who was convicted of conspiring to distribute more than 50 grams of cocaine base, was upheld as reasonable under the Sixth Amendment because it fell within the maximum sentence for the statute of conviction, and defendant's role as father to six children did not render the sentence unreasonable.
