United States Seventh Circuit


US v. Hudson, 09-3518

In a prosecution of defendant for possession of a firearm as a felon and possession of a stolen firearm, district court's conclusion that defendant's prior look-alike drug conviction amounted to a "controlled-substance offense," in sentencing defendant to 72 months' imprisonment, is affirmed as controlled-substance offenses include state-law offenses related to controlled or counterfeit substances punishable by imprisonment for a term exceeding one year.
