   Criminal case - Sentencing Guidelines. For the court's first opinion in 
   this case see U.S. v. Thorn, 375 F.3d 679 (8th Cir. 2004). On remand from 
   the Supreme Court for further consideration under Booker, the court 
   applies the Pirani plain error analysis and concludes defendant is not 
   entitled to Booker relief as defendant has failed to demonstrate a 
   reasonable probability that the district court would have imposed a lesser 
   sentence under an advisory guidelines scheme.
