United States Second Circuit


US v. v. Capanelli, 05-3056

Conviction and sentence for conspiracy to commit robbery is affirmed over claims that: 1) defendant's sentence is procedurally unreasonable because the district court gave too much weight to the guideline range and too little weight to the other factors enumerated in 18 U.S.C. section 3553(a); and 2) the district court erred in applying the U.S.S.G. section 2B3.1(b)(2)(C) firearm enhancement as there was insufficient evidence that defendant specifically intended the possession or brandishing of a firearm.
