United States Seventh Circuit

In calculating loss after a guilty plea to theft of interstate freight, 18 U.S.C. section 659, the district court did not err in concluding that defendant intended to steal the truck as well as its contents, or in imposing a "special skill" enhancement based on operation of an eighteen-wheeler. Clarification of a supervised release condition precluding employment as a commercial truck driver is necessary.
