191176P.pdf   05/01/2020  United States  v.  Demetrick Roberts
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  19-1176
   U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Davenport   
[PUBLISHED] [Colloton, Author, with Wollman and Benton, Circuit Judges] Criminal case - Sentencing. The district court did not err in applying a four-level increase under Guidelines Sec. 2K2.1(b)(6)(B) for possession of a firearm in connection with another felony offense - see U.S. v. Walker, 771 F.3d 449 (8th Cir. 2014); the district court did err, however, in applying a two-level increase under Guidelines Sec. 3B1.4 for using a minor to commit the offense as the evidence did not establish that the defendant acted affirmatively to involve the minor in the crime; engaging in an arm's length transaction in which defendant traded marijuana and cash to the minor for the firearm was not sufficient to show defendant used the minor to commit the offense of unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon; remanded for resentencing.
