United States First Circuit
US v. Peters, 12-1345
District court's imposition of a thirty-three months' imprisonment upon a defendant for failing to register as a sex offender is affirmed where the district court's sentencing calculation was sound because measuring defendant's good-behavior period from his release from confinement in Wyoming serves Virginia's interest in ascertaining whether he can behave himself as a member of free society.
