PER CURIAM
Sheree Amanda Moreno pled guilty to voluntary manslaughter, I.C. § 18-4006(1),
enhanced for use of a deadly weapon during the commission of a crime, I.C. § 19-2520. The
district court sentenced Moreno to a unified term of thirty years, with a minimum period of
confinement of fifteen years. Moreno appeals.
Sentencing is a matter for the trial court’s discretion. Both our standard of review and the
factors to be considered in evaluating the reasonableness of the sentence are well established and

need not be repeated here. See State v. Hernandez, 121 Idaho 114, 117-18, 822 P.2d 1011, 1014-
15 (Ct. App. 1991); State v. Lopez, 106 Idaho 447, 449-51, 680 P.2d 869, 871-73 (Ct. App.
1984); State v. Toohill, 103 Idaho 565, 568, 650 P.2d 707, 710 (Ct. App. 1982). When reviewing
the length of a sentence, we consider the defendant’s entire sentence. State v. Oliver, 144 Idaho
722, 726, 170 P.3d 387, 391 (2007). Applying these standards, and having reviewed the record
in this case, we cannot say that the district court abused its discretion.
Therefore, Moreno’s judgment of conviction and sentence is affirmed.
