Text: 16 The fourth issue asserted by Killion is whether the district court erred in applying the mixture or substance containing a detectable amount language for sentencing purposes. Killion alleges that P-2-P offenses fall under 21 U.S.C. § 841(b)(1)(C), and that the above language applies only to those substances listed under 21 U.S.C. § 841(b)(1)(A)-(B). 17 We are unpersuaded by Killion's analysis. Section 841(b)(1)(C) sets forth penalties for violations involving controlled substance in schedule I or II except as provided in subparagraphs (A), (B), and (D).... Nothing in § 841(b)(1)(C) negates the application of the mixture or substance containing a detectable amount language. Although the Guideline echoes the statute to some extent, it is not congruent. It is the Guideline we are construing and applying.
