View this case - free  

Overview: District court did not err in applying a sentencing enhancement under U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2 after consulting only the charging document for defendant's previous offenses because the charging document made clear that defendant was convicted of having sexual contact with persons he knew were physically helpless, thereby qualifying as crimes of violence.

Overview: District court did not err in sentencing defendant upon his illegal reentry conviction, a violation of 8 U.S.C.S. § 1326(a), (b)(2), because his sentence did not create "unwarranted disparity" under 18 U.S.C.S. § 3553(a)(6) in light of "fast-track" programs available to defendants in other districts as Congress specifically authorized disparity.
