U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 10-3335
U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri - Kansas City
[PUBLISHED] [Smith, Author, with Murphy, Circuit Judge, and
Schreier, District Judge]
Criminal case - Sentencing. District court appropriately considered
whether the drug defendant sold - Benzylpiperazine - was sufficiently
equivalent to MDMA (Ecstasy) in both potency and property to justify
use of the MDMA quantity tables in calculating the Guidelines range
applicable to a Benzylpiperazine offense; court adequately explained its
rationale for its decision, and no procedural error occurred.
