Darwin Jose Martinez Anchundia v. United States

Whether the Eleventh Circuit’s categorical exclusion of defendant crewmembers in a maritime drug smuggling venture from consideration for a minor-role downward adjustment under the United States Sentencing Guidelines, on the sole basis that they are accountable for significant drug quantities, is appropriate, given that no such categorical exclusion finds support in U.S.S.G § 3B1.2(b) or its commentary.
