041580P.pdf   06/01/2005  United States  v.  Brian White
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  04-1580
   Eastern District of Missouri   
Criminal Case - conviction. District court erred in interpreting defendant's guilty plea as an admission of facts recited in a portion of the indictment to which defendant explicitly denied admitting. Any errors, however, did not affect substantial rights, as the district court relied on other evidence to support drug quantity, leadership role and dates of the conspiracy. The district court did not err in holding defendant accountable for drugs he did not receive because the additional drugs were in furtherance of the conspiracy and reasonable foreseeable. District court's calculation of drug quantity was not clearly erroneous. Sentencing error was not plain error. [PUBLISHED] [M. Arnold, Author, with Chief Judge Loken and Murphy, Circuit Judges]
