191423P.pdf   06/08/2020  United States  v.  Devin Hodgkiss
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  19-1423
   U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Des Moines   
   [PUBLISHED] [Colloton, Author, with Shepherd and Erickson, Circuit Judges] 
   Criminal case - Sentencing. The meaning of "offense" in 18 U.S.C. Sec. 
   3553(f)2) is unambiguously limited to the offense of conviction, and the 
   matter is remanded to the district court for further proceedings on the 
   question of whether defendant possessed a weapon in connection with the 
   offense of conviction and was thus ineligible for safety-valve sentencing.
