U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 05-3896
District of Nebraska
[PUBLISHED] [Colloton, Author, with Arnold and Fagg, Circuit Judges]
Criminal case - sentencing. District court's variance from the advisory
range based on its concerns about the credibility of the government's trial
witnesses was unreasonable under the circumstances of this case; district
court's view that the distinction between crack and cocaine was not
scientifically justified and resulted in disproportional sentences was not
a sufficient basis to affirm the sentence.
