United States Seventh Circuit

District court's imposition of a 360 months' sentence on a defendant convicted of various fraudulent schemes is vacated and remanded for resentencing as the sentencing record leaves too much doubt about whether the judge impermissibly started with the presumption that a within-Guidelines sentence is reasonable and whether he completed adequate consideration of all the relevant section 3553(a) factors.
