Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Des Moines County, Mark E. Kruse, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Tabor, P.J., and Schumacher and Chicchelly, JJ. Opinion by Tabor, P.J. (5 pages)
David Lee Miller appeals his sentences for four drug-related convictions. He claims the district court did not provide adequate reasoning and abused its discretion. OPINION HOLDS: Because the district court’s sentencing colloquy gave Miller ample rationale for his sentences, and that rationale was reasonable and tenable, we affirm.
