                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Northern District of Texas
                             USDC No. 4:14-CR-78-10


Before HIGGINBOTHAM, ELROD, and SOUTHWICK, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
       Tommy Wayne Hallmark appeals the sentence imposed following his
guilty plea conviction of conspiracy to possess with the intent to distribute 50
grams or more of a mixture or substance containing methamphetamine. At
sentencing, the district court found, in accord with the presentence report
(PSR) and its addenda, that Hallmark’s offense involved 2.9 kilograms of
methamphetamine, resulting in a base offense level of 32. Hallmark argues


       * Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH
CIR. R. 47.5.4.

that the district court reversibly erred in this finding. He contends that the
drug-quantity information in the PSR is unreliable because it is based on his
codefendants’ uncorroborated statements.
      The probation officer who prepared Hallmark’s PSR obtained the
information reported therein by reviewing investigative materials prepared by
DEA agents and other officers who were involved in the case and by
interviewing a DEA agent who corroborated the information.            “We have
previously held that the district court may properly find sufficient reliability
on a presentence investigation report which is based on the results of a police
investigation.” United States v. Fuentes, 

, 220 (5th Cir. 2014)
(internal citation and quotation marks omitted). As Hallmark presented no
evidence to rebut the information in the PSR, “the district court was free to
adopt the PSR’s findings without further inquiry or explanation.”
