US v. Barner, No. 08-10080

Defendant's drug possession conviction is affirmed where the police were not required to supply Defendant in the course of his interrogation with a flow of information to help him calibrate his self-interest in deciding whether to speak. Sentence is reversed where, because the District Judge chose to sentence within the Guidelines, an error in the calculation could not be harmless.
