   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - St. Louis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Riley, Author, with Bright and Melloy, Circuit Judges]
   Criminal Case - sentence. District court did not err in granting an
   upward variance from 15-21 month sentencing range to 51 months
   imprisonment for enticing an adult female to travel in interstate
   commerce for purposes of prostitution. Court did not commit significant
   procedural error, or plain error in explaining the reason for the variance
   or in comparing offense to other crimes or in concluding Guidelines
   range was insufficient to accomplish purposes of sentencing. Sentence
   was not unreasonable. Judge Bright dissents on basis for upward
   variance.
