Zagel ) ROD BLAGOJEVICH ) GOVERNMENT’S SENTENCING MEMORANDUM The United States of America, by and through PATRICK J. FITZGERALD, United States Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois, respectfully submits the following Government’s Sentencing Memorandum, stating as follows: INTRODUCTION The goal of sentencing is to achieve a sentence that is “sufficient but not great er than necessary.” 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a). In doing so, the Court must account for a variety of factors specific to the particular defendant and particular case. The framework for determining an appropriate sentence is set forth in § 3553(a). In particular, § 3553(a) requires that the c ourt ensure the sentence imposed properly considers, among other factors: (1) the nature and circumstance of the offense; (2) the history and characteristics of the defendant; (3) the need to reflect the seriousness of the offense, to promote respect for the law, and provide just punishment for the offense; (4) the need to afford adequate deterrence; (5) the need to protect the public from further crimes of the defendant; (6) the properly calculated Sentencing Guideline range along with pertinent policy statements provided by the Sentencing Commission; and (7) the need to avoid unwarranted sentencing disparities.
