123588P.pdf   07/18/2013  United States  v.  Jeriel Brooks
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  12-3588
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - Cape Girardeau   
   [PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with Gruender, Circuit Judge, and Wimes, 
   District Judge] 
   Criminal case - Sentencing. District court did not err in assessing 
   criminal history points for two prior state court convictions, thereby 
   disqualifying defendant for safety-valve sentencing; the offenses were not 
   relevant conduct and were unrelated to the drug conspiracy for which he 
   was convicted here; mandatory minimum sentences do not violate a 
   defendant's due process rights.
