the issue before the court is whether mr sanchez jimenez's sentence of thirty months imprisonment sentence forty two percent higher in the high end of the advisory guideline range whether that sentence is substantively a reasonable although the sentencing judge recognized that mr sanchez menaces previous illegally entries were accounted for in both his offense level calculation and his criminal history calculation the guidelines didn't go far enough in the judge offense level was enhanced by four points because of a previous illegal reentry and he also received criminal history points based on two previous illegal reentry convictions and a previous conviction for he  does have multiple immigration offenses in his background the illegal reentry guidelines make no distinction between people who reenter the united states once or in mr sanchez who menaces case multiple times and this is by design the illegal reentry guidelines were amended in two thousand and sixteen to more adequately account for recidivism especially within the context that we have here which is probably sentencing defendants with multiple previous illegal prior to the two thousand and sixteen amendment the illegal re entry guidelines did not specifically include enhancements for previous reentry convictions after two thousand and sixteen the guidelines specifically provided a tiered enhanced that scheme for previous reentry convictions if a two level enhancement for having two or more misdemeanor illegal entry convictions and a four level enhancement for having a previous felony illegal ranchi conviction this two thousand and sixteen enhancement came about as a result of the sentencing commission's an analysis of national data which indicated that most illegal re entry defendants have multiple previous reentry convictions and determined that a four level enhancement was appropriate whether  also received six criminal history points for his previous felony reentry conviction both parties agree that the appropriately calculated sentencing range was fifteen to twenty one months however mr sanchez jimenez was sentence thirty months based on the sentencing court's determination that the guidelines did not adequately take into account mr sanchez and then it's his previous immigration history the sentencing court stated that even in a vacuum this offense required a significant sentence indicating that the court did not believe the immigration sentencing guidelines went far enough in its punishment not just for this defendant but for all immigration and to shore up that statement to the court repeatedly discussed how immigration crimes again and found that the guidelines did not adequately account for mr sanchez menaces risk of recidivism however the sentencing commission addressed this very fact that immigration defendants are more often than a sentencing court is allowed to disagree with a particular guideline when the commission's view is not based on empirical data or national spirits but the immigration guidelines were amended in two thousand sixteen to better reflect national experience and reflect and careful that so the issue that the sentencing judge took was not the guy lines failed to account for recidivism but that they didn't do enough to punish which i think is essentially the guidelines are were created to address that very point and so the policy disagreement here is that just that they didn't go far enough in punish guess it's more problematic if the judge or i guess sorry let me think that it's less problematic if the judge is doing that when the guideline itself is not based on that impair all that and national experience which our position is that the guidelines here are based on in pure law the judge's experience what about the judge's experience locally i mean i suppose that that would be one factor that the judge can consider but one factor not the entire just to respond further to with the sentencing commission did with respect to immigration defendants recognize that immigration defendants are more often than not recidivists and the commission found that  people who ran to the country do so on a rate of three dollars times when the commission developed this particular guidelines they chose to make no distinction between defendants who have one illegal  what was his for mr sanchez hernandez and which are considerations that are usually not presence to that same degree in other types of federal offenses so in addition to the criminal history calculation did account for m previous felony convictions for illegal reentry so not only did mr sanchez menace receive a reset of best enhanced meant for within his offense level but his criminal history also reflected his two previous criminal convictions the reason considered view of the sens who commission mr sanchez menaces guideline range was fifteen to twenty one months and that was a sentence that would be sufficient but not greater than necessary to address that in greece risk of to the facts before it and was not the results of a wholesale disagreement with the guidelines treatment of the legal reentry offenses and i just want to be clear on that last point because it's a theme in some of the questions and the answers that were provided a before it and in this case it was faced with the record that in the district courts few reflective and extraordinary history of recidivism that just report the defendant has approximately one thousand illegal entries many of which not result in in prosecutions for those cases where he was prosecuted the defendant received increasing terms of imprisonment for these last illegal reentry prosecution and the defendant received its will total of twenty three and after considering all of those facts the court here determined to be thirty month sentence was sufficient but not better than necessary to achieve the purposes of sentencing so if the court doesn't have any questions but the government is most likely to pass muster if it is based on consideration particular to the defendant or the case as opposed to normal incidence of the offense or the judge is wholesale disagreement with the guidelines and we would just note that
