United States Ninth Circuit

A conviction and sentence for knowingly transporting an illegal alien is affirmed where: 1) the district court correctly denied a motion to suppress evidence resulting from an alleged stop of defendant's vehicle because there was no stop for purposes of Fourth Amendment analysis; and 2) the sentence imposed was not unreasonable.
