How later courts describe this case

  • describing defendant’s argument but refusing to find that sentencing entrapment had in fact occurred
  • no acceptance of responsibility reduction when defendant put the government to its burden of proof at trial by denying any intent to distribute a controlled substance
  • record does not show that the defendant committed a drug offense “greater than that which he was predisposed to commit”
