United States Eighth Circuit

Sentence for drug crimes is affirmed where the district court did not err in excluding defendant's prior convictions for reckless driving from its calculations of the applicable sentencing guidelines range, as neither conviction was countable for criminal-history-points purposes under U.S.S.G. sec. 4A1.2(c)(1).
