Further, the
and the district courts comments reveal that the district court
imposed a sentence it concluded was appropriate under the facts,
and that a remand would be futile.
We therefore affirm McNeills sentences.
We dispense
with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are
adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument
would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
