United States Eighth Circuit
US v. Cole, 07-2593, 07-2808
Conviction and sentence for drug-and-firearm related offenses is affirmed where: 1) the district court did not err in holding that defendant's possession of handguns was part of the same course of conduct as possessing an unregistered shotgun, and hence relevant conduct for the offense of conviction; 2) the district court did not err in applying an enhancement for possession of a stolen firearm; 3) a denial of a downward departure was unreviewable; 4) an evidentiary ruling was proper; 5) there was sufficient evidence supported the conviction; and 6) the sentence was reasonable.
