ANDREW SHELTON, FREDERICK LEWIS, PATRICK EDWARDS & TERRY WALKER Defendants-Appellants. ____________________ Appeals from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division Nos. 15-cr-00350-1, 15-cr-00350-9, 15-cr-00350-7 & 15-cr-00350-6 — John J. Tharp, Jr., Judge. ____________________ ARGUED SEPTEMBER 21, 2018 — DECIDED OCTOBER 3, 2018 ____________________ Before WOOD, Chief Judge, and FLAUM and HAMILTON, Cir- cuit Judges. FLAUM, Circuit Judge. Defendants Andrew Shelton, Freder- ick Lewis, Patrick Edwards, and Terry Walker raise several sentencing challenges. First, all defendants argue the district court improperly imposed multiple offense-level enhance- ments under U.S.S.G. § 2K2.1 in violation of double counting 2 Nos. 17-3084, 17-3127, 17-3396, 17-3559 principles. Second, Shelton challenges the court’s application of three criminal history points for a prior burglary convic- tion. Third, Lewis argues the court erred by imposing a three- year term of supervised release without separately address- ing the § 3553(a) factors. We affirm. I. Background A. Factual Overview In the early morning on April 12, 2015, eight men—An- drew Shelton, Alexander Peebles, Elgin Lipscomb, Terry Walker, Patrick Edwards, Frederick Lewis, Dandre Moody, and Marcel Turner—stole about 104 Ruger firearms from a cargo train parked in a Chicago rail yard. The firearms were new and packaged in their original boxes. The eight burglars then divided the stolen firearms among themselves and sold them on the black market. Most of the guns have not been re- covered, but at least seventeen of the stolen guns have been recovered from crime scenes. B. Indictment and Guilty Pleas The operative indictment is the third superseding indict- ment, which the grand jury returned on October 15, 2015. Rel- evant to this appeal, the indictment charged defendants with: possession of a firearm after being convicted of a felony, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g) (Count One); possession of a stolen firearm, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(j) (Count Two); and cargo theft, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 659 (Count Three). Shelton pleaded guilty to Counts One and Two; Lewis pleaded guilty to Counts One and Three; Edwards pleaded guilty to Counts One and Two; and Walker pleaded guilty to Counts One and Three. Nos. 17-3084, 17-3127, 17-3396, 17-3559 3 C. Sentencing 1. Andrew Shelton The district court sentenced Andrew Shelton on October 3, 2017. Relevant here, the pre-sentence report (“PSR”) sug- gested: a two-level Guidelines enhancement for stolen fire- arms pursuant to § 2K2.1(b)(4)(A) (the “stolen firearm en- hancement”); a four-level enhancement for “engag[ing] in the trafficking of firearms” pursuant to § 2K2.1(b)(5) (the “traf- ficking enhancement”); and a four-level enhancement for “us[ing] or possess[ing] any firearm or ammunition in con- nection with another felony offense” pursuant to § 2K2.1(b)(6)(B) (the “other felony offense enhancement”). Shelton objected to the application of the other felony offense enhancement, and the district court overruled the objection. It reasoned: Here, Mr. Shelton clearly possessed the firearms that he was taking from the train in connection with another of- fense, namely, that train robbery. Application note 14(B) to the guideline, 2K2.1, is directly on point. It says that subsection (b)(6)(B), which is the subsection we’re talking about, applies in a case of a defendant who dur- ing the course of a burglary finds and takes a firearm even if the defendant did not engage in any other con- duct with that firearm during the course of the bur- glary. Additionally, Shelton objected to the PSR’s recommenda- tion of eleven criminal history points. Pursuant to U.S.S.G. § 4A1.2(a) and § 4A1.2(k), the PSR suggested adding three criminal history points for each of three 1999 burglary convic- 4 Nos. 17-3084, 17-3127, 17-3396, 17-3559 tions. According to the PSR, Shelton was first arrested for bur- glary on January 24, 1999; on July 28, 1999, he pleaded guilty and he was sentenced to three years of probation. On Febru- ary 8, 1999, Shelton again was arrested for burglary; on March 8, 1999, he pleaded guilty and was sentenced to twenty-nine days’ imprisonment followed by three years of probation. And on August 26, 1999, Shelton was arrested for burglary a third time; he pleaded guilty on May 23, 2000. By committing this third burglary, Shelton violated the terms of his proba- tion. The court revoked his probation and, for each of the three burglary convictions, sentenced Shelton to “4 years of custody in the IDOC, concurrent with [the other two case numbers].” He was released from custody on February 21, 2001, which is within fifteen years of the commencement of this case, April 12, 2015. At sentencing, Shelton argued criminal history points were only appropriate for the May 2000 conviction. The court disagreed. Because there was no evidentiary presentation to the contrary, the court assumed the PSR’s description of Shel- ton’s prior convictions was accurate. It concluded that “what the state court did formally was to impose that four-year sen- tence of revocation on each of those three cases, two of them being probation violations and one of them being an original sentence.” Because the revocation term of imprisonment plus the original term of imprisonment was greater than thirteen months, and Shelton’s date of release from incarceration was within fifteen years of commencement of the present offense, Nos. 17-3084, 17-3127, 17-3396, 17-3559 5 the court imposed three criminal history points for Shelton’s March 1999 conviction. See U.S.S.G § 4A1.2(e), (k). 1 In total, Shelton’s adjusted offense level was 29 and crimi- nal history category was IV. The Guidelines suggested a term of imprisonment of 121–151 months. After the court examined the § 3553(a) factors, it commented that the disputed Guide- lines factors and Shelton’s criminal history score were not ma- terial to its sentencing decision. The court then imposed a be- low-Guidelines imprisonment term of 120 months and three years of supervised release. 2. Frederick Lewis The district court sentenced Frederick Lewis on October 5, 2017. Amongst the enhancements to his base offense level, the PSR suggested the two-level stolen firearm enhancement; the four-level trafficking enhancement; and the four-level other felony offense enhancement. Lewis raised several objections; relevant here, Lewis argued the other felony offense enhance- ment was improper because it resulted in “double counting,” as he also received the trafficking and stolen firearm enhance- ments. The district court overruled Lewis’s objection. It ex- plained: There’s no double counting involved because there has been an enhancement because the firearms were sto- len. The enhancement for possession of the firearm in connection with another offense goes beyond the fact that the firearm was stolen. It’s possession of the fire- arm in connection with the commission by Mr. Lewis 1 The government conceded that the PSR’s suggestion of also impos- ing three criminal history points based on the July 1999 conviction was improper. See U.S.S.G. § 4A1.2 cmt. n.11. 6 Nos. 17-3084, 17-3127, 17-3396, 17-3559 of another offense, namely stealing firearms off the train car…. [T]he stolen firearm enhancement would apply whether or not Mr. Lewis had anything to do with the theft of the firearm in the first place. Lewis’s total adjusted offense level was 34 and criminal history category was VI. Due to a statutory cap, the Guide- lines recommended 240 months’ imprisonment. They also suggested one-to-three years of supervised release. The court considered and discussed the § 3553(a) factors at length, and it imposed a below-Guidelines imprisonment term of 180 months and a three-year term of supervised release. The court explained that supervised release was appropriate “[g]iven the seriousness of this offense and the long unabated history of criminal conduct by Mr. Lewis.” It also noted that the “term of supervised release is not intended to be additional punish- ment” but instead is “intended to be a resource.” It empha- sized that the probation officer would “provide support and guidance and mentoring and resources.” At the end of the hearing, the government asked the court if it was “fair to say that the Court would impose that sentence regardless of how the enhancements were [applied].” The court replied that it “did intend to point that out,” and stated it would not have imposed a lower sentence if the Guidelines range was lower. 3. Patrick Edwards Next, the district court sentenced Patrick Edwards on No- vember 2, 2017. The PSR suggested applying the two-level stolen firearm enhancement; the four-level trafficking en- hancement; and the four-level other felony offense enhance- ment. Edwards objected; he argued the court could not im- Nos. 17-3084, 17-3127, 17-3396, 17-3559 7 pose the stolen firearm enhancement or the other felony of- fense enhancement due to double counting. The court over- ruled both objections. First, the court saw no double counting concern with ap- plying the stolen firearm enhancement to a person convicted of being a felon in possession of a firearm. It explained: [J]ust because someone is a felon in possession of a fire- arm, they’re not necessarily in possession of a stolen firearm.... [W]here the firearm possessed by that pro- hibited person also happens to be a stolen firearm, the commission has said that there needs to be a further two-level enhancement based on the additional seri- ousness of the fact that the firearm being possessed by the prohibited person is a stolen firearm. Second, as for the other felony offense enhancement, the court rejected the argument that this burglary did not qualify be- cause the guns were packaged and not readily accessible. Edwards’s total adjusted offense level was 29, and com- bined with a criminal history category of VI, the Guidelines suggested 151–188 months’ imprisonment. After weighing the § 3553(a) factors, the court imposed a below-Guidelines term of imprisonment of 132 months and three years of super- vised release. The court then explained that disputed Guide- lines issues were not material to the sentence. 4. Terry Walker Last, the district court sentenced Terry Walker on Decem- ber 6, 2017. Like his codefendants, the PSR suggested the two- level stolen firearm enhancement; the four-level trafficking enhancement; and the four-level other felony offense en- hancement. Walker objected to the application of both the 8 Nos. 17-3084, 17-3127, 17-3396, 17-3559 trafficking enhancement and other felony offense enhance- ment. At sentencing the court rejected his objection. It ex- plained: Under Section 2K2.1(b)(6)(B), that enhancement ap- plies to possession of a firearm in connection with an- other offense. And here Mr. Walker clearly possessed the firearms that were being stolen in connection with the train car burglary. His possession of the firearms was a crime. The burglary was a crime, and he pos- sessed the firearms in connection with the burglary.… It’s not double counting. Walker’s total adjusted offense level was 34. With a crimi- nal history category of IV, and taking into account the statu- tory maximum, the Guidelines suggested 210–240 months’ imprisonment. After weighing the § 3553(a) factors, the court imposed a below-Guidelines imprisonment term of 150 months and three years of supervised release. After imposing the sentence, the court stressed it would have imposed the same sentence regardless of the Guidelines disputes. II. Discussion Generally, “[w]e review the district court’s interpretation of the Guidelines de novo, and review for clear error the factual determinations underlying the district court’s application of the Guidelines.” United States v. Grzegorczyk, 800 F.3d 402, 405 (7th Cir. 2015). “We review de novo procedural errors,” such as improperly calculating the Guidelines range or failing to consider the § 3553(a) factors. Id. Additionally, “[e]rrors in calculating the advisory guide- line range are subject to harmless error analysis.” United States v. Hill, 645 F.3d 900, 906 (7th Cir. 2011). “To prove harmless Nos. 17-3084, 17-3127, 17-3396, 17-3559 9 error, the government must be able to show that the Guide- lines error did not affect the district court’s selection of the sentence imposed.” Id. at 912 (quoting United States v. Abbas, 560 F.3d 660, 667 (7th Cir. 2009)). “[W]here the district court indicates that it would have imposed the same sentence re- gardless of any sentencing error, the error is harmless and a remand is not required.” United States v. Foster, 701 F.3d 1142, 1157 (7th Cir. 2012). However, “a conclusory comment tossed in for good measure” will not suffice. Abbas, 560 F.3d at 667. A. Double Counting All four defendants challenge the district court’s applica- tion of offense-level enhancements pursuant to U.S.S.G. § 2K2.1(b). At issue here are three subsections: The stolen fire- arm enhancement, § 2K2.1(b)(4)(A), calls for a two-level en- hancement “[if] any firearm … was stolen.” The trafficking enhancement, § 2K2.1(b)(5), calls for a four-level enhance- ment “[i]f the defendant engaged in the trafficking of fire- arms.” And the other felony offense enhancement, § 2K2.1(b)(6)(B), calls for a four-level enhancement “[i]f the defendant … used or possessed any firearm or ammunition in connection with another felony offense; or possessed or transferred any firearm or ammunition with knowledge, in- tent, or reason to believe that it would be used or possessed in connection with another felony offense.” Defendants argue the district court erred in applying these enhancements because doing so resulted in impermissible “double counting,” a claim of procedural error we review de 10 Nos. 17-3084, 17-3127, 17-3396, 17-3559 novo. 2 “In the context of guidelines sentencing, the term ‘dou- ble counting’ refers to using the same conduct more than once to increase a defendant’s guidelines sentencing range.” United States v. Vizcarra, 668 F.3d 516, 519 (7th Cir. 2012). There are two types of double counting: (1) “conduct that forms the fac- tual basis for an element of the offense might also support a guidelines enhancement or adjustment, meaning that the con- duct is counted once as part of the base offense and a second time through the application of an enhancement or adjust- ment”; and (2) “particular conduct might support the appli- cation of more than one enhancement or adjustment.” Id. In Vizcarra, we acknowledged inconsistency in our cases about double counting and clarified our jurisprudence. We is- sued a clear directive: “[D]ouble counting is generally permis- sible unless the text of the guidelines expressly prohibits it.” Id. 3 2 The government maintains that Shelton, Lewis, and Walker “all agreed in their sentencing memorandum, and failed to object at their sen- tencings, that the stolen firearm enhancement under Guidelines § 2K2.1(b)(4)(A) applied,” and that Shelton did not object to the trafficking enhancement under § 2K2.1(b)(5). It thus contends that those defendants waived or forfeited review of those enhancements. We disagree. “In the context of sentencing objections in the district court, a defendant need not present a ‘fully developed or even well-articulated’ objection to preserve it for appeal.” United States v. Johns, 732 F.3d 736, 740 (7th Cir. 2013) (quot- ing Swanson v. United States, 692 F.3d 708, 715 (7th Cir. 2012)). Here, all defendants “objected to application of the other felony offense enhance- ment, which preserves the [double counting] issue.” See id. Indeed, Lewis and Walker explicitly raised their double counting concerns. 3 We recognized that other circuits “have developed slightly different ‘tests’ for finding ‘impermissible’ double counting.” Vizcarra, 668 F.3d at 525. Specifically, the “Third, Fourth, and Fifth Circuits allow double counting in the absence of an explicit textual bar”; “[t]he Second, Sixth, Nos. 17-3084, 17-3127, 17-3396, 17-3559 11 1. The Stolen Firearm Enhancement First, only Edwards argues the district court improperly applied § 2K2.1(b)(4)(A) because Edwards pleaded guilty to possessing a stolen firearm under 18 U.S.C. § 922(j). He points out that “the fact that such firearms were stolen was an ele- ment of [§ 922(j)],” and therefore contends that the stolen fire- arm enhancement cannot apply because “the same facts, the same guns, and the same conduct are being used to unfairly twice penalize Mr. Edwards.” We disagree. Edwards relies on United States v. Podhorn, 549 F.3d 552 (7th Cir. 2008). In Podhorn, the defendant was convicted of vi- olating several federal statutes, including selling stolen fire- arms in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(j). Id. at 555. On appeal, the defendant “claim[ed] that he should not have received an enhancement under [U.S.S.G.] § 2K2.1(b)(4) based on the fact that some firearms were stolen, because the offense with which he was charged, 18 U.S.C. § 922(j), already includes as an element the fact that the firearm is stolen.” Id. at 559. Ac- cording to the defendant, “[a]pplying the enhancement … would … amount to double-counting.” Id. We agreed. Id. at 559–60. We relied on Application Note 8(A) (at the time, Ap- plication Note 9), which states: and Eighth Circuits allow double counting if Congress or the Sentencing Commission intended it, but presume such intent in the absence of a tex- tual bar”; “[t]he First Circuit allows double counting absent an explicit textual bar or a compelling basis to recognize an implicit one”; “[t]he Ninth, Tenth, and Eleventh Circuits allow double counting unless the competing guidelines provisions address identical harms caused by the defendant’s conduct”; and “[t]he D.C. Circuit … appears to presume that double counting is permissible absent a textual bar.” Id. at 525–26 (foot- notes omitted). 12 Nos. 17-3084, 17-3127, 17-3396, 17-3559 If the only offense to which § 2K2.1 applies is 18 U.S.C. § 922(i), (j), or (u), or 18 U.S.C. § 924(l) or (m) (offenses involving a stolen firearm or stolen ammunition) and the base offense level is determined under subsection (a)(7), do not apply the enhancement in subsection (b)(4)(A). This is because the base offense level takes into account that the firearm or ammunition was sto- len. U.S.S.G. § 2K2.1 cmt. n.8(A). 4 As we later stated in Vizcarra, our decision in Podhorn was “not controversial” because it “in- volved an explicit double-counting bar in the text of the guidelines.” 668 F.3d at 523. Contrary to Edwards’s view, Podhorn is inapplicable here. Application Note 8(A) does not apply for two reasons. First, in this case, § 922(j) is not “the only offense to which § 2K2.1 applies.” Rather, Edwards also pleaded guilty to possession of a firearm as a convicted felon under § 922(g). Second, the base offense level was determined under § 2K2.1(a)(6), and not subsection (a)(7). Thus, unlike in Podhorn, Application Note 8(A) does not expressly prohibit application of the stolen firearm enhancement, and there is no impermissible double counting concern. 2. The Other Felony Offense Enhancement Next, all defendants argue the court improperly imposed the other felony offense enhancement because it also imposed the stolen firearm enhancement and the trafficking enhance- 4The quoted text is the present wording of Application Note 8(A). While not verbatim to the text we considered in Podhorn, it is substantially similar. Nos. 17-3084, 17-3127, 17-3396, 17-3559 13 ment. Because the Guidelines do not expressly preclude add- ing these enhancements together in appropriate cases, and each enhancement addresses a different aspect of defendants’ conduct in this case, the district court did not err. Defendants first suggest Application Note 13(D) to § 2K2.1 expressly prohibits application of both the other felony of- fense and trafficking enhancements. Note 13(D) reads: In a case in which three or more firearms were both possessed and trafficked, apply both subsections (b)(1) and (b)(5). If the defendant used or transferred one of such firearms in connection with another felony of- fense (i.e., an offense other than a firearms possession or trafficking offense) an enhancement under subsec- tion (b)(6)(B) also would apply. U.S.S.G. § 2K2.1 cmt. n.13(D). It is true that Note 13(D) “expressly prohibits” imposing enhancements under § 2K2.1(b)(6)(B) and § 2K2.1(b)(5) if the other felony offense is the trafficking offense itself. United States v. Johns, 732 F.3d 736, 740 (7th Cir. 2013). For that reason, in Johns, we held that the court erred because it applied both enhancements “based on the same conduct—[the defend- ant’s] transfer of the firearms to the CI with knowledge that the CI was going to resell the firearms.” Id. Critically, however, “the guidelines do not prohibit simul- taneous application of the trafficking and other-felony [of- fense] enhancements” when the other felony offense is an of- fense other than firearms possession or trafficking. United States v. Rodriguez, 884 F.3d 679, 681 (7th Cir. 2018); see also United States v. Grove, 725 F. App’x 252, 254 (4th Cir. 2018); United States v. Truitt, 696 F. App’x 391, 394 (11th Cir. 2017); 14 Nos. 17-3084, 17-3127, 17-3396, 17-3559 United States v. Sweet, 776 F.3d 447, 451 (6th Cir. 2015). Here, defendants possessed firearms in relation to a felony offense “other than a firearms possession or trafficking offense”: bur- glary of the cargo train. Thus, unlike in Johns, only § 2K2.1(b)(5) applied based on defendants’ sale of the fire- arms; § 2K2.1(b)(6)(B) was imposed due to the burglary. Additionally, defendants maintain the court’s application of the other felony offense enhancement constituted imper- missible double counting because the stolen firearms were al- ready used to apply the stolen firearm enhancement. While they point to no Guidelines provision or commentary that suggests a court cannot impose both enhancements, they em- phasize that in Vizcarra, we held that “double counting is gen- erally permissible.” 668 F.3d at 519 (emphasis added). They thus maintain that double counting may be impermissible even when not expressly prohibited by the Guidelines. They suggest that other circuits—which, as we said in Vizcarra, “al- low double counting unless the competing guidelines provi- sions address identical harms caused by the defendant’s con- duct”—provide a roadmap for this supposed exception. See 668 F.3d at 526 & n.8 (citing United States v. Gallegos, 613 F.3d 1211, 1216 (9th Cir. 2010); United States v. Coldren, 359 F.3d 1253, 1256 (10th Cir. 2004); United States v. De La Cruz Suarez, 601 F.3d 1202, 1220 (11th Cir. 2010)). 5 Defendants’ argument is not persuasive. Our holding in Vizcarra was clear, well-reasoned, and based on the text and 5Defendants argue the government waived the opportunity to re- spond to this argument because it did not address the out-of-circuit cases cited by Lewis in its response brief. We disagree. In its response brief, the government responded to this precise argument. It explained why it be- lieved the various enhancements accounted for distinct harms. Nos. 17-3084, 17-3127, 17-3396, 17-3559 15 structure of the Guidelines. Indeed, nothing in our subse- quent case law suggests any sort of exception. See, e.g., Rodri- guez, 884 F.3d at 680 (“[D]ouble counting is permitted unless the text of the guidelines or the authoritative commentary ex- pressly prohibits it. Thus, to find that the court erred …, we must conclude that the guidelines expressly prohibit it.” (em- phasis added)). Moreover, the “competing guidelines provisions” at issue here do not “address identical harms caused by the defend- ant’s conduct.” See Vizcarra, 668 F.3d at 526. To be sure, all three enhancements relate to the same stolen guns. However, the court imposed the three enhancements to address distinct conduct and harm: the § 2K2.1(b)(4)(A) enhancement applied because defendants possessed firearms that happened to be stolen (regardless of whether defendants were involved in the theft of the firearms); the § 2K2.1(b)(5) enhancement applied because defendants trafficked firearms; and the § 2K2.1(b)(6)(B) enhancement applied because the defendants committed another felony offense, the burglary. See United States v. Hill, 563 F.3d 572, 581 (7th Cir. 2009) (“[T]he [other felony offense] enhancement in this case was based on conduct that was distinct from [the defendant’s] simple possession of the firearms, namely the burglary.”). Indeed, Guidelines commentary explicitly instructs that the other felony offense enhancement does apply when a de- fendant acquires a firearm during a burglary: Subsection[] (b)(6)(B) … appl[ies] … in a case in which a defendant who, during the course of a burglary, finds and takes a firearm, even if the defendant did not en- gage in any other conduct with that firearm during the course of the burglary…. In [this] case[], application of 16 Nos. 17-3084, 17-3127, 17-3396, 17-3559 subsection[] (b)(6)(B) … is warranted because the pres- ence of the firearm has the potential of facilitating an- other felony offense…. U.S.S.G. § 2K2.1 cmt. n.14(B). Defendants argue Note 14(B) does not apply to the particular burglary at issue here. They emphasize that defendants did not set out to steal firearms, that the stolen firearms were boxed up for distribution, and that the firearms were not readily accessible and available for use. Defendants thus contend that applying the other felony enhancement would not serve the underlying rationale of Note 14: the risk of stolen firearms facilitating another offense. This argument is not persuasive. “Application Note 14(B) is unequivocal about when the § 2K2.1(b)(6) enhancement should apply: when a defendant, ‘during the course of a bur- glary, finds and takes a firearm, even if the defendant did not engage in any other conduct with that firearm.’” United States v. Krumwiede, 599 F.3d 785, 790 (7th Cir. 2010) (quoting U.S.S.G. § 2K2.1 cmt. n.14(B)); see also United States v. Johnston, 533 F.3d 972, 976 (8th Cir. 2008) (“Stealing a firearm during the course of a burglary triggers application of the [other fel- ony offense] enhancement.”). Put simply, as the district court concluded, “there’s nothing in the application note that sug- gests [defendants’ proffered] limitation.” In sum, the stolen firearm, trafficking, and other felony of- fense enhancements were all appropriate, there was no imper- missible double counting, and the court did not err. B. Shelton’s Criminal History Points Next, Shelton challenges the court’s decision to include three criminal history points for a prior burglary conviction. “Under U.S.S.G. § 4A1.1(a), a criminal defendant is assigned Nos. 17-3084, 17-3127, 17-3396, 17-3559 17 three criminal history points for each prior sentence of impris- onment exceeding thirteen months.” United States v. Moreno- Padilla, 602 F.3d 802, 807 (7th Cir. 2010). “The temporal reach of U.S.S.G. § 4A1.1(a) is limited to prior sentences imposed or served within fifteen years of the defendant’s commencement of the offense for which he or she is presently being sen- tenced.” Id. (citing U.S.S.G. § 4A1.2(e)(1)). Criminal history points might also be added if a defend- ant’s probation on a prior conviction “was revoked and … he was re-imprisoned based on that revocation.” United States v. Marks, 864 F.3d 575, 579 (7th Cir. 2017). In such a situation, the court “add[s] the original term of imprisonment to any term of imprisonment imposed upon revocation,” and “[f]or the purposes of determining the applicable time period,” the court uses “the date of last release from incarceration on such sentence.” U.S.S.G. § 4A1.2(k). If “at the time of revocation an- other sentence was imposed for a new criminal conviction, that conviction [is] computed separately from the sentence imposed for the revocation.” Id. § 4A1.2 cmt. n.11. At the same time, “[w]here a revocation applies to multiple sentences, and such sentences are counted separately under § 4A1.2(a)(2),” criminal history points are added only for “the term of impris- onment imposed upon revocation to the sentence that will re- sult in the greatest increase in criminal history points.” Id. A brief refresher of the relevant facts: Shelton was con- victed of three state burglaries in 1999 and 2000. According to the PSR, he was sentenced to three years’ probation and twenty-nine days’ imprisonment for a March 8, 1999 convic- tion and three years’ probation for a July 28, 1999 conviction. When he was convicted for the third burglary on May 23, 2000, he also violated the terms of his probation for the first 18 Nos. 17-3084, 17-3127, 17-3396, 17-3559 two burglaries. For each of the three convictions, he was sen- tenced to “4 years of custody in the IDOC, concurrent with [the other case numbers].” Based on this information, the dis- trict court concluded that the state court imposed three sepa- rate custodial sentences. Pursuant to § 4A1.2(a), the court im- posed three criminal history points for the May 2000 convic- tion, and pursuant to § 4A1.2(k), it imposed three criminal history points for the March 1999 conviction. Shelton argues the court erred because there is no evi- dence in the record suggesting the state court intended to im- pose separate terms of imprisonment for each prior burglary. Rather, he asserts that “the state court simply intended … to indicate that the periods of probation previously imposed … would be, as a practical matter, revoked and terminated since defendant would be serving a 4-year sentence for the [third] burglary conviction.” The only mention of these prior burglaries in the record is made in the PSR. Shelton did not object to the PSR’s descrip- tion of the prior burglaries, and because there was no “evi- dentiary presentation to suggest that what is reported … in the [PSR] is inaccurate,” the court accepted the PSR’s charac- terization. If the PSR’s account is accurate, the court did not err. In United States v. Eubanks, a defendant was charged with armed robbery, and as a result, his probation for a prior fire- arm theft conviction was revoked. 593 F.3d 645, 654 (7th Cir. 2010). We emphasized that the fact that “the sentence for the armed robbery offenses was to run ‘concurrent’ mean[s] that the sentence for the armed robbery offenses was a different offense from the revocation of probation/theft of the firearm sentence.” Id. at 654 n.1. We thus held that “[t]he district court correctly computed [the armed robbery] offense separate Nos. 17-3084, 17-3127, 17-3396, 17-3559 19 from the revocation offense for the purpose of criminal his- tory points.” Id. at 654; see also United States v. Green, 458 F. App’x 568, 569 (7th Cir. 2012) (“[R]evocations are always counted separately from convictions in criminal history cal- culations.”); United States v. Brewster, 390 F. App’x 557, 560 (7th Cir. 2010) (same). 6 In any event, even if the district court’s reliance on the PSR was erroneous, any error in calculating Shelton’s criminal his- tory score was harmless. The district court imposed a below- Guidelines term of imprisonment, and it made an “unequiv- ocal statement … that it would have imposed the same sen- tence” even if it improperly calculated criminal history points. See United States v. Hines-Flagg, 789 F.3d 751, 757 (7th Cir. 2015). At the conclusion of Shelton’s sentencing hearing, the court stated clearly: “[W]hether there are some arbitrary points added or taken away from Mr. Shelton’s criminal his- tory score does not change my overall analysis of the 3553(a) factors.” C. Lewis’s Supervised Release Last, Lewis argues the district court committed procedural error because it “did not make the § 3553(a) findings required 6Shelton also argues the revocation sentence imposed related to the March 1999 conviction “remained beyond the 15-year time period” to be counted for criminal history points. This argument fails because for a term of imprisonment to be imposed due to revocation of probation, courts use “the date of last release from incarceration on such sentence.” U.S.S.G. § 4A1.2(k)(2)(A). Here, the date of release is within fifteen years of “de- fendant’s commencement of the instant offense.” See id. § 4A1.2(e)(1). 20 Nos. 17-3084, 17-3127, 17-3396, 17-3559 by § 3583(c) so as to properly justify the 3-year period of su- pervised release.” 7 We disagree. It is true that “in determining the length of the term … of supervised release,” the district court “shall consider” various § 3553(a) factors. 18 U.S.C. § 3583(c). However, Lewis’s argument is misplaced because the district court did consider the § 3553(a) factors. “Although prison and supervised release are two different forms of punishment, they are both part of a single sentence.” United States v. Oliver, 873 F.3d 601, 610 (7th Cir. 2017); see also e.g., United States v. Bloch, 825 F.3d 862, 869 (7th Cir. 2016); United States v. Armour, 804 F.3d 859, 867–68 (7th Cir. 2015). For that reason, a district court is “not required to engage in a ‘separate comprehensive analysis’ of the § 3553(a) factors as they applied to [the defendant’s] term of supervised release after extensively discussing those same factors with respect to 7The government suggests Lewis waived this argument because he did not challenge the Guidelines range for supervised release in his sen- tencing memorandum and did not object at the sentencing hearing. At minimum, the government maintains the error was forfeited so we should review for plain error. “Waiver is the intentional relinquishment of a known right,” while “forfeiture typically results from ‘an accidental or negligent omission.’” United States v. Garcia, 580 F.3d 528, 541 (7th Cir. 2009) (quoting United States v. Cooper, 243 F.3d 411, 416 (7th Cir. 2001)). “The line between waiver and forfeiture is often blurry,” and “[t]he dis- tinction is not always easy to make.” Id. Indeed, our cases are inconsistent as to whether a defendant’s failure to object to the PSR’s Guidelines calcu- lation constitutes waiver or forfeiture. Compare United States v. Oliver, 873 F.3d 601, 610 (7th Cir. 2017) (“[W]hen [the defendant] stated that he had no objections to the PSR at the beginning of the sentencing hearing, he could not have known whether the district court would comply with pro- cedural requirements during the rest of the proceeding.”), with United States v. Gumila, 879 F.3d 831, 837–38 (7th Cir. 2018) (finding waiver). We need not resolve this tension because the district court did not err. Nos. 17-3084, 17-3127, 17-3396, 17-3559 21 [the defendant’s] prison sentence.” Oliver, 873 F.3d at 611; see also Bloch, 825 F.3d at 869 (“[T]he district court was not re- quired to provide two separate explanations, one for the term of imprisonment and one for the term of supervised re- lease.”); Armour, 804 F.3d at 868 (“[T]he district court’s justifi- cations for imposing [a prison term] also apply to the … term of supervised release.”). Instead, the court “need only provide one overarching explanation and justification—tethered of course, to the § 3553(a) factors—for why it thinks a criminal sentence comprised of both terms of imprisonment and su- pervised release is appropriate.” Oliver, 873 F.3d at 611 (quot- ing Bloch, 825 F.3d at 870). Here, the court examined the § 3553(a) factors in detail in justifying its sentence, which included terms of imprisonment and supervised release. Moreover, it explicitly indicated that supervised release was appropriate “[g]iven the seriousness of this offense and the long unabated history of criminal con- duct by Mr. Lewis.” It also commented that the probation of- ficer would “provide support and guidance and mentoring and resources.” Thus, the court did not err.8 8 Lewis relies only on United States v. Henry, 813 F.3d 681 (7th Cir. 2016). In Henry, we noted that “[t]he government [was] right to concede sentencing error in regard to supervised release” because the “district judge had failed to make the findings required by 18 U.S.C. §§ 3553(a) and 3583(d) to justify the length of a term of supervised release … that he im- posed.” Id. at 683. Henry is distinct from this case for two reasons. First, the government conceded error. Second, the district court in Henry gave no explanation particular to why it imposed a term of supervised release. 22 Nos. 17-3084, 17-3127, 17-3396, 17-3559 III. Conclusion For the foregoing reasons, we AFFIRM the judgment of the district court.
