United States Seventh Circuit


US v. Barnes, 09-2052

Defendant's drug and firearm possession sentence is vacated where, without any justification for why one co-conspirator was responsible for a greater quantity of drugs than his fellow co-conspirators, the discrepancy in the district court's factual findings was clearly erroneous.
