United States Eleventh Circuit


US v. Whitson, 09-10521

Defendant's cocaine importation sentence is vacated where defendant's prior conviction for non-overt act criminal conspiracy was not a "crime of violence," in light of Begay v. United States, 128 S. Ct. 1581 (2008), and thus, she does not qualify as a "career offender."
