Most-quoted passages

“'restitution is relevant to the extent it shows acceptance of responsibility.'”
4 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“We agree it may have been proper to depart because of the six months of home detention Miller had already served. The fact that she’d already been punished to some extent is certainly relevant to what further sentence is needed to punish her and deter others. See 18 U.S.C § 3553(a)(2) (sentence should reflect these and other considerations). And because the Commission seems not to have considered the issue of compensating for time erroneously served, the district court was free to depart. See 18 U.S.C. § 3553 (b).”
