States, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C.
§ 1291, and we affirm.
Sanchez-Camacho contends that the sentence is substantively unreasonable
because the district court overstated the seriousness of his criminal history, and
because the 16-level enhancement that was imposed pursuant to U.S.S.G.
§ 2L1.2(b)(1)(a) was triggered by a relatively minor and stale narcotics conviction.
The record reflects that the district court properly considered Sanchez-Camacho’s
individual circumstances and the required factors under 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a), and
that, under the totality of the circumstances, the sentence below the guidelines
range is not substantively unreasonable. See Gall v. United States, 552 U.S. 38,
51-52 (2007); United States v. Autery, 555 F.3d 864, 877 (9th Cir. 2009).
AFFIRMED.
