United States Eighth Circuit

Defendant's sentence for conspiring to distribute and distributing methamphetamine and using a communication device to facilitate methamphetamine distribution is affirmed where: 1) at sentencing, the district court explicitly found a drug quantity level of 34, rather than level 36 as urged by the government; and 2) the court did not clearly err in imposing a four level role-in-the-offense increase.
