US v. Douglas, No. 08-2655, 08-2661

Defendant's cocaine and crack cocaine drug sentence for violating 21 U.S.C. section 841(a)(1) and (b)(1)(A) is affirmed where Defendant's challenge to his sentencing enhancements failed because the District Court applied the statutory minimum, and thus any error in sentencing Defendant was harmless.
