The Honorable Henry E. Autrey, United States District Judge for the Eastern

District of Missouri.

conditions. The court revoked supervised release and imposed a revocation sentence

of 8 months in prison and 48 months of additional supervised release. On appeal,

Watson contends that the court abused its discretion by failing to articulate its

consideration of the 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) sentencing factors. After careful review, we

conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion. See United States v.

Miller, 557 F.3d 910, 915-16 (8th Cir. 2009) (standard of review); United States v.

Gray, 533 F.3d 942, 943-44 (8th Cir. 2008). The judgment is affirmed.
