United States v. Mendoza, ___ F.3d ___, 2015 WL 1591244 (5th Cir. Apr. 9, 2015) (information in presentence investigation report was sufficient to prove conviction was money-laundering aggravated felony, under INA 101(a)(43)(D), 8 U.S.C. 1101(a)(43)(D), for illegal re-entry sentencing purposes, because the $10,000 requirement for the amount of funds laundered is a circumstance-specific element of the aggravated felony definition, which could be proven by evidence outside the elements of the offense and outside the traditional record of conviction); see United States v. Alaniz, 726 F.3d 586, 619 (5th Cir.2013) (Generally, a PSR bears sufficient indicia of reliability to permit the sentencing court to rely on it at sentencing. In the absence of rebuttal evidence, the sentencing court may properly rely on the PSR and adopt it. (internal alterations and quotation marks omitted)).
