v.

SILTON RUSSELL GOUTREAUX, also known as “Pretty Boy”,

                                                 Defendant-Appellant

                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Northern District of Texas
                             USDC No. 4:16-CR-111-2

Before WIENER, DENNIS, and SOUTHWICK, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
       Silton   Russell     Goutreaux        appeals    his   188-month      sentence            of
imprisonment       for   conspiracy     to    possess    with     intent   to     distribute
methamphetamine.          He argues that the district court’s calculation of the
amount of drugs that his offense involved rested on statements in the
presentence report (PSR) that lacked sufficient indicia of reliability. However,
Goutreaux fails to show that the information contained in the PSR was

       * Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH
CIR. R. 47.5.4.

materially untrue, inaccurate, or unreliable. See United States v. Harris, 702
F.3d 226, 229–31 (5th Cir. 2012). Goutreaux also challenges the two-level
firearm enhancement in U.S.S.G. § 2D1.1(b)(1).            The district court’s
determination that the enhancement applies is a factual finding, which we
review for clear error. United States v. King, 773 F.3d 48, 52 (5th Cir. 2014).
Goutreaux fails to show that the finding was not plausible in light of the record
as a whole. See id.
      AFFIRMED.
