OPINION

John I. Bronson, Jr., appeals from a judgment in a criminal case entered pursuant to a conditional plea of guilty to distribution of Oxycontin. He appeals his conviction based on a suppression claim, and his 151 month prison sentence based on United States v. Booker, — U.S. -, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005). Because the parties are fully familiar with the background facts and procedural history we need not set them forth, and limit our discussion to our ratio decidendi. We find no merit to Bronson’s suppression claim, hence we will affirm the conviction. However, in accordance with the Court’s Booker protocols, we will remand for re-sentencing.

On the suppression issue, Bronson makes two closely related arguments: that his statements to the police were involuntary, and that his Miranda waiver was involuntary. Bronson argues that his actions were involuntary because he was drunk, and because the police coerced cooperation out of him by promising to let him see his fifteen-year-old daughter, who had recently been returned to his custody, if he gave them what they wanted.

Both of these arguments are, however, dispatched by the District Court’s careful and comprehensive findings of fact. The District Court found that “defendant expressed concern about his daughter; defendant asked that he be allowed to call her, and defendant was allowed to call his daughter on his cell phone.” Bronson’s cell-phone records, as well as the testimony of several witnesses, support this conclusion. The District Judge further found that “it is clear that the troopers did not engage in any deceit, coercion, intimidation tactics or attempts to improperly influence defendant by making promises with regards to his daughter.” These findings all have ample support in the record.

Similarly, as to Bronson’s claims of intoxication, the District Court found that Bronson’s own expert, Dr. Ralph Tarter, testified that Bronson would have had a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of .069% at the time of his arrest, below the level of legal intoxication. At the time he wrote out his statements, Bronson’s BAC was zero. Dr. Tarter also testified that “people who regularly abuse alcohol,” as Bronson concededly did, “can often function at blood alcohol concentration levels of .069 and higher.” The District Court also found that Bronson exhibited no signs of intoxication to any of the troopers. There was extensive evidence for all of these findings.

*80 Given these findings, as well as the detailed and thorough waivers that Bronson signed, and the .careful procedures followed by the police, the District Court’s order denying the motion to suppress evidence will be affirmed. Having determined that the sentencing issues appellant raises are best determined by the District Court in the first instance, we will vacate the sentence and remand for resentencing in accordance with Booker. See United States v. Davis, 407 F.3d 162 (3d Cir. 2005) (opinion sur denial of rehearing en banc).
