United States Ninth Circuit

Defendant's sentence for interstate harassment is affirmed where the district court's inherently factual determination that defendant induced a co-conspirator's restraint of the victim was not illogical, implausible, or without support in the record, and thus the district court properly applied a "restraint of the victim" enhancement.
