United States First Circuit
US v. McGhee, 09-1322
Enhanced sentencing of defendant upon a conviction for drug-related offenses and a determination that he is a career offender based in part on a prior state youthful offender adjudication, U.S.S.G. section 4B1.1 (2008), is reversed where state law classifies youthful offender adjudications differently from adult convictions such that defendant's prior adjudication is not a career offender predicate.
