First Circuit: US v. Perez-Crisostomo


Increase in sentence for Obstruction warranted where deft maintains false name throughout proceedings, and there is some chance that the deception interfered with sentencing.

No plain error in denial of sentence reduction for acceptance of responsibility where, in addition to acquiescing in the sentencing procedures, the deft attempts otherwise to obstruct justice.
