PER CURIAM:
Lorenzo Deshon Stephens appeals the district court’s
order denying his motion for reduction of sentence under 18
U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2006). Our review of the record convinces
us that the district court did not abuse its discretion in
denying Stephens a reduction of sentence on the basis of public
safety. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the
district court. United States v. Stephens, No. 3:06-cr-00281-
HEH-1 (E.D. Va. Jan. 9, 2013). We dispense with oral argument
because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented
in the materials before this court and argument would not aid
the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
