UNITED STATES of America, Appellee, v. Angel LARA-GARCIA, Appellant.
    No. 05-2098.
    United States Court of Appeals, Eighth Circuit.
    Submitted: Feb. 21, 2006.
    Filed: Feb. 24, 2006.
    
      Before MELLOY, FAGG, and BENTON, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM.

Angel Lara-Garcia appeals the 185-month prison sentence the district court imposed after Lara-Garcia pleaded guilty to drug conspiracy and forfeiture charges. Lara-Garcia argues the court committed reversible error when it found he did not meet the requirements for safety-valve relief set forth in U.S.S.G. § 5C1.2(a)(5).

Having carefully reviewed the record, we agree with the district court that Lara-Garcia failed honestly to provide the government with all the information and evidence he had concerning his involvement in the charged drug conspiracy. See U.S.S.G § 5C1.2(a)(5); United States v. O’Dell, 204 F.3d 829, 838 (8th Cir.2000) (affirming denial of safety-valve relief based on testimony and district court’s own credibility assessments). Accordingly, we affirm. 
      
       The Honorable Richard G. Kopf, United States District Judge for the District of Nebraska.
