   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  09-2945
                          and No:  09-3124
   U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Iowa - Cedar Rapids   
   [PUBLISHED] [Bright, Author, with Loken and Gruender, Circuit Judges]
   Criminal case - Sentencing. District court did not err in relying on
   unscored criminal history to impose an upward variance; claim of
   sentencing disparity rejected as the differences between defendants'
   sentences were based on legitimate distinctions in their conduct;
   defendant Jones's sentence was not unreasonable; no error in imposing an
   obstruction of justice enhancement against defendant Hawkins as he lied
   to investigators and gave his brother false information to provide to them;
   no error in denying defendant Hawkins's request for an acceptance-of-
   responsibility reduction; no error in imposing an enhancement for use of
   a minor; no error in applying the cross-reference set out in Guidelines
   Sec. 2k2.1(c)
