Carrillo did not object to the condition of supervised release in the district
court, and we therefore review for plain error. See United States v. Maciel-
Vasquez, 458 F.3d 994, 996 n.3 (9th Cir. 2006). Because there is “some indication
in the record of a problem of abuse,” the district court did not plainly err when it
imposed the condition of supervised release requiring Carrillo to abstain from
alcohol. See United States v. Betts, 511 F.3d 872, 881 (9th Cir. 2007); see also
United States v. Vega, 545 F.3d 743, 747-48 (9th Cir. 2008) (recognizing the
connection between drug abuse and alcohol abuse when affirming a condition of
supervised release prohibiting the consumption of alcohol).
AFFIRMED.
