UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Jose ROMOS-GONZALES, aka Taliban, Defendant-Appellant, 542 F. App'x 582

MEMORANDUM A jury convicted Defendant-Appellant Jose Romos-Gonzales of distributing and conspiring to distribute methamphetamine in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 841(a)(1) and 846, and the district court sentenced him to 188 months in prison. We have jurisdiction over his appeal pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm. The district court’s finding that Romos-Gonzales did not invoke his right to counsel on the night of his arrest was not clearly erroneous: three police officers testified to that fact at the suppression hearing. See United States v.

I.E.V., 705 F.3d 430, 434 (9th Cir.2012) (denial of motion to suppress reviewed for clear error); United States v. Fitch, 659 F.3d 788, 797 (9th Cir.2011) (describing the clear error standard as “illogical, implausible, or without support in the record”). Romos-Gonzales forfeited his argument that his Miranda waiver on the night of his arrest was not knowing, voluntary, and intelligent. See United States v. Scott, 705 F.3d 410, 415 (9th Cir.2012) (explaining the difference between a “waiver” and a “forfeiture”).

Romos-Gonzales raised this argument in his motion to suppress, but he failed to make it at the suppression hearing when given the opportunity. See O’Rourke v. Seaboard Sur. Co. (In re E.R Fegert, Inc.), 887 F.2d 955, 957 (9th Cir. 1989) (an issue is not properly preserved unless it was “raised sufficiently for the trial court to rule on it”). We decline to address that argument here. The prosecutor’s remarks during closing arguments did not clearly or obviously constitute vouching. See Puckett v.

United States, 556 U.S. 129, 135, 129 S.Ct. 1423, 173 L.Ed.2d 266 (2009) (review is for plain error where the appellant fails to object in the district court). Romos-Gon-zales’s entire case, from start to finish, hinged on impugning the integrity of the government’s investigation and witnesses; the prosecutor was permitted to note during his closing argument that Romos-Gon-zales’s theory was not supported by any evidence. See United States v. Keyser, 704 F.3d 631, 643 (9th Cir.2012) (prosecutor’s conduct is to be considered “in the context of the entire trial”); United States v.

Wilkes, 662 F.3d 524, 540-41 (9th Cir. 2011) (“[Pjrosecutors are permitted to respond to defense counsel’s attempts to impeach the credibility of government witnesses.”). AFFIRMED. This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
