United States v. Edison Achito Charo, A/K/A Charlie, 996 F.2d 1169, 11th Cir. (1993)
2d 1169
Non-Argument Calendar.
United States Court of Appeals,
Eleventh Circuit.
Aug. 4, 1993.
Sandra K. Meadows, Mobile, AL, for defendant-appellant.
Deborah A. Griffin, Asst. U.S. Atty., Mobile, AL, for plaintiff-appellee.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of
Alabama.
Before KRAVITCH and BIRCH, Circuit Judges, and TUTTLE, Senior
Circuit Judge.
PER CURIAM:
Charo appeals his sentence for conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute
cocaine and money laundering.
He maintains that the district court erred in refusing to grant him a two-level
reduction for acceptance of responsibility under U.S.S.G. 3E1.1(a). He
contends that he manifested acceptance of responsibility by admitting his
involvement in the offense, showing remorse, and cooperating with law
enforcement officials. The Government responds that the district court's finding
that Charo had not accepted responsibility for the offense conduct was not
clearly erroneous.
