Text: We review the sentence imposed by the district court for an abuse of discretion. Gall v. United States, 552 U.S. 38, 51 (2007). We consider “not only the length of the sentence but also the factors evaluated and the procedures employed by the district court in reaching its sentencing determination.” United States v. Webb, 403 F.3d 373, 383 (6th Cir. 2005). To be considered procedurally reasonable, the district court must “properly calculate the guidelines range, treat the guidelines as advisory, consider the § 3553(a) factors and adequately explain the chosen sentence.” United States v. Presley, 547 F.3d 625, 629 (6th Cir. 2008) (citation and quotation marks omitted). We review legal conclusions concerning application of the Guidelines de novo and factual findings in applying the Guidelines for clear error. United States v. Coleman, 664 F.3d 1047, 1048 (6th Cir. 2012). A fact is clearly erroneous only where the record as a whole leaves us with a “definite and firm conviction that a mistake has been committed.” United States v. Moon, 513 F.3d 527, 540 (6th Cir. 2008) (citation and internal quotation marks omitted).
