Crack Distribution Sentence Vacated
In US v. Preaceley, No. 09-2580, the court vacated defendant’s sentence for distributing and possessing with intent to distribute 50 grams or more of a substance containing cocaine base so that the district court could perform an individualized consideration of factors relevant to an assessment of whether Category VI under the Sentencing Guidelines significantly over-represented the seriousness of defendant’s criminal history or the likelihood that he would commit further crimes.
