United States v. Zohfeld

Thank you for sharing!

ARGUED SEPTEMBER 18, 2009

Before EASTERBROOK, Chief Judge, and WILLIAMS and TINDER, Circuit Judges.

Charles Zohfeld, after pleading guilty to stalking the surgeon who saved his life, was sentenced within the Sentencing Guidelines range. He complains that the district court relied on inaccurate information in sentencing him and improperly considered the mental health treatment he may have received in prison when arriving at his sentence. After reviewing the record, we find that the district court did not rely on any inaccurate information in sentencing Zohfeld. We also find that the district court did not abuse its discretion in considering Zohfeld’s mental health among the variety of factors it discussed at sentencing. Therefore, we affirm his sentence.
