Eaton contends that the district court erred by imposing a two-level upward
adjustment under U.S.S.G. § 3B1.4 for using a minor to commit a crime. The
record reflects that the district court did not clearly err in finding that Eaton
affirmatively used his children in the conspiracy. See United States v.
Castro-Hernandez, 258 F.3d 1057, 1060-61 (9th Cir. 2001).
AFFIRMED.
