United States v. Arroyo-Maldonado, No. 13-2137 (1st Cir. 2015)
Annotate this CaseDefendant pleaded guilty pursuant to a plea agreement to fraud. The district court sentenced Defendant to 120 months imprisonment and granted eighteen months credit for time served. The applicable Guidelines Sentencing Range (GSR) was seventy to eighty-seven months of imprisonment. Defendant appealed, alleging that the district court erred in imposing a sentence above the applicable GSR. The First Circuit affirmed the district court’s sentence, holding that the district court’s imposition of a 120-month sentence was neither procedurally flawed nor substantively unreasonable where the court considered all sentencing factors, adequately explained its sentence and deviation from the GSR, and imposed a reasonable sentence in the totality of the circumstances.
