APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE DISTRICT OF PUERTO RICO

[Hon. Juan M. Perez-Gimenez, U.S. District Judge]

Before

Torruella, Chief Judge, Coffin, Senior Circuit Judge, and Stahl, Circuit Judge.

May 14, 1998

Per Curiam. Upon careful review of the briefs and record, we conclude that the district court was not required to grant defendant safety valve relief under U.S.S.G. 5C1.2(5) or an adjustment for his role in the offense under U.S.S.G. 3B1.2(b). The findings underlying the district court's rulings -- that defendant had not truthfully provided all his information about the offense, and that he was not less culpable than most other participants -- are adequately supported by the record and the inferences reasonably to be drawn therefrom. Affirmed. See 1st Cir. Loc. R. 27.1.
