United States First Circuit

Sentence for conspiracy to possess crack cocaine with intent to distribute is affirmed where: 1) the record supports the district court's imposition of a sentencing enhancement for exercising managerial control over the drug enterprise; 2) the district court did not err in applying a weapons enhancement because defendant admitted to possessing the relevant firearm at the place where the drugs were stashed; and 3) defendant's sentence was substantively reasonable.
