Wilma Page was convicted by a federal jury of possessing 45 grams of cocaine and faced a prison term under the Federal Sentencing Guidelines of 21 years and 10 months
At the sentencing hearing, the judge considered the presentence report which disclosed that Page had used a gun during the commission of the crime and that Page was responsible for the distribution of an additional 25 grams of cocaine, conduct for which Page was not criminally charged. This so-called "uncharged misconduct" would increase Page's sentence by an additional 24 months. After the sentencing hearing, the judge imposed upon Page an enhanced sentence of 23 years and 10 months. Page appeals based on the U.S. Supreme Court rulings in Booker and Blakely on judge-issued sentencing enhancements. How should the appeals court rule? What will be an ideal response?
