Overview: Imposition of 54-month sentence under 18 U.S.C.S. § 3583(e)(3) upon revocation of supervised release was not unreasonable because it was within statutory limits and was based upon district court's consideration of defendant's history on supervised release, which included prior revocation, and other appropriate factors under 18 U.S.C.S. § 3553(a).

Overview: Although defendant's tampering convictions involved the same victim, the underlying activity--cutting a hole in a fence, stealing a car, then returning the next day through the same hole in the fence and stealing a truck--amounted to two discrete criminal episodes, thereby qualifying as two predicate offenses under 18 U.S.C.S. § 924(e)(1).
