Frederick Cooper appeals the 480-month prison sentence the district court 1 imposed when it granted his motion to reduce his life sentence based on 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) and Amendment 706 to the United States Sentencing Guidelines. After considering the arguments on appeal, we conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in sentencing Cooper: the record reflects that the court correctly determined the amended Guidelines range, carefully considered 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) and the applicable Guidelines policy statement, and explained why it chose this particular reduction. See United States v. Burrell, 622 F.3d 961, 963-64 (8th Cir. 2010). Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the district court, and we grant counsel’s motion to withdraw.
