UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee v. Andrew Indelicato PETERSON, Defendant-Appellant, 869 F.3d 620

BENTON, Circuit Judge. Andrew Indelicate Peterson pled guilty to being a felon in possession of ammunition, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1) and 18 U.S.C. § 924(a)(2). The district court sentenced him to 120 months’ imprisonment, the statutory maximum and Guidelines range. Having jurisdiction under 18 U.S.C. § 1291, this court affirms. Peterson was a member of a street gang that fired 80 shots toward a Minneapolis hospital on August 26, 2014. He did not shoot a gdn himself but had possessed the ammunition used in the attack.' Pedestrians in front of the hospital were forced to run for cover.

One bullet came dangerously close to an infant. No one was injured in the attack.' On January 5, 2015, Peterson was arrested for possession of burglary tools. He was serving that state sentence when, in August 2015, he was indicted for participating in the hospital attack. Peterson claims the district court violated his due process rights by failing, to rule on his objections to the Presentence Investigation Report (PSR) and abused its discretion by making his federal sentence consecutive to his state sentence.

The district court properly chose not to rule on Peterson’s objections to the PSR because the objected-to material did not affect sentencing. See Fed. R. Crim. P. 32(i)(3)(B). Even so, Peterson argues the objeeted portions should be stricken and he should be resentenced. Rule 32 does not require striking the objected-to material. United States v. Hopkins, 824 F.3d 726, 735 (8th Cir. 2016). “A defendant has no right to be resentenced when the district court expressly states it did not rely on the challenged information in sentencing.” Id. (internal quotation marks omitted).

This court reviews consecutive or concurrent sentencing for reasonableness. United States v. Poe, 764 F.3d 914, 916 (8th Cir. 2014). This is similar to an abuse of discretion review. United States v. Mathis, 451 F.3d 939, 941 (8th Cir. 2006). This court reviews for abuse of discretion by first, examining for procedural errors and second, reviewing the substantive reasonableness of the sentence. United States v. Bryant, 606 F.3d 912, 918 (8th Cir. 2010). District courts have wide and broad discretion to .order a consecutive sentence to an undischarged, sentence. Id. at 920.

Peterson argues that'the district court abused its discretion by imposing a consecutive sentence. See id. at 920-21. The district court explained its reason for imposing a consecutive sentence — that the crime was “one of the most despicable crimes” it had seen. The district court did not procedurally err because it .referenced the § 3553(

a) factors and the considerations in U.S.S.G. § 5G1.3, comment 4. Id. at 920. Peterson’s sentence, within the Guidelines range, is substantively reasonable. The judgment is affirmed. . The Honorable Patrick J. Schütz, United States District Judge for the District of Minnesota.
