United States Eighth Circuit


US v. Strickland, 09-1527

Defendant's firearm possession sentence is affirmed where the district court properly enhanced defendant's sentence based on his possession of a firearm in connection with another felony because the district court affirmatively made a finding that the gun found on defendant's person facilitated, or had the potential to facilitate, his drug-possession offense.
