APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF PUERTO RICO
[Hon. Gene Carter,* U.S. Chief Judge]
Before
Torruella, Chief Judge,
Selya and Stahl, Circuit Judges.
Eduardo Caballero Reyes on brief for appellant.
Guillermo Gil, United States Attorney, Miguel A. Pereira,
Assistant United States Attorney, and Jos A. Quiles-Espinosa, Senior
Litigation Counsel, on brief for appellee.
*Of the District of Maine, sitting by designation.
Per Curiam. Defendant waived any objection to the
denial of an adjustment for acceptance of responsibility by
failing timely to object to the presentence report as
required by Local Rule 418.4. In any event, the district
court's alternative reasons for denying an acceptance of
responsibility adjustment -- essentially that defendant had
sought to minimize his role in the September 15, 1993
negotiations and viewed himself as the "victim" of drug
addiction and a friend working for the DEA -- are adequately
supported by the record and are appropriate reasons for
denying the adjustment. See United States v. Reyes, 927 F.2d
48, 51 (1st Cir. 1991); United States v. Royer, 895 F.2d 28
(1st Cir. 1990).
Defendant is not entitled to a reduction for not
obstructing justice. U.S.S.G. 3C1.1.
The judgment is summarily affirmed. Loc. R. 27.1.
