                 Appeal from the United States District Court
                      for the Southern District of Florida
            ----------------------------------------------------------------

                                (March 27, 2006)

Before EDMONDSON, Chief Judge, ANDERSON and CARNES, Circuit Judges.


PER CURIAM:
      Defendant-Appellant Jonathan Marcus Winters appeals his 188-month

sentence for possession with intent to distribute cocaine base, in violation of 21

U.S.C. § 841(a)(1). No reversible error has been shown; we affirm.

      The presentence investigation report (PSI) indicated that, while searching a

residence suspected of harboring a crack cocaine manufacturing operation, federal

agents discovered Winters lying on a bed. Winters possessed a baggie containing

3.7 grams of crack cocaine. The PSI also listed many offenses for which

Defendant had been arrested and convicted. Defendant was convicted of

aggravated assault with a weapon, sale/delivery of cocaine, and sale of cocaine.

The probation officer recommended, and the district court applied, the career

offender provision, U.S.S.G. § 4B1.1, which set Defendant’s criminal history

category at VI. The PSI also indicated that Defendant had been arrested eight

other times, beginning when he was four years old.

      Defendant argues that, under United States v. Booker, 125 S.Ct. 738, his

sentence is unreasonable because it is greater than necessary to accomplish the

goals in 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a)(2) and it does not reflect the seriousness of the

offense, which involved Defendant’s possession of only 3.7 grams of crack

cocaine. Defendant also contends that the district court improperly considered his




                                          2
criminal history by focusing on the underlying facts of a prior conviction and on

criminal conduct for which he was not convicted.

         After a district court accurately has calculated the guideline range,1 it “may

impose a more severe or more lenient sentence.” United States v. Crawford, 407

F.3d 1174, 1179 (11th Cir. 2005). We review such a sentence for reasonableness.

United States v. Winingear, 422 F.3d 1241, 1244 (11th Cir. 2005) (per curiam).

In determining whether a sentence is reasonable, the district court should be

guided by the factors in 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a). See Booker, 125 S.Ct. at 765-66;

Winingear, 422 F.3d at 1246. But to establish the reasonableness of a sentence, a

district court need not discuss explicitly on the record every § 3553(a) factor.

United States v. Scott, 426 F.3d 1324, 1329 (11th Cir. 2005). An indication that

the court “adequately and properly considered the § 3553(a) sentencing factors

and the advisory Guidelines range” in conjunction with the sentence is enough.

Id.

         Here, the district court’s 188-month sentence was reasonable. The sentence

was at the high end of the guideline range of 155-188 months’ imprisonment. The

district court considered Defendant’s juvenile criminal history, his arrest record,

and the facts behind some of his earlier convictions. The district court suggested

                                                  3
that Defendant had received leniency in the past. These factors are ones that the

district court has discretion to examine. See United States v. Williams, 989

F.2d 1137, 1142 (11th Cir. 1993) (writing that, in considering whether to depart

upward under § 4A1.3, the district court may contemplate juvenile convictions,

arrests not resulting in convictions, all facts in the PSI, and leniency of previous

sentences). We also note that Defendant did not challenge the factual accuracy of

the probation officer’s account of Defendant’s earlier conduct.

      Further, the district court explained that Defendant’s sentence was, in large

part, based on § 3553(a)(2)(B)’s requirement that a sentence afford adequate

deterrence to criminal conduct. And the district court stated that it had examined

“each of the enumerated provisions” of § 3553(a) in determining an appropriate

sentence. Thus, the district court contemplated the factors required by Booker.

That the district court did not elaborate on considerations other than deterrence

does not change this result. See Scott, 426 F.3d at 1329. Also, Defendant’s

sentence was significantly less than the statutory maximum 20-year sentence. See

Winingear, 422 F.3d at 1246 (in reviewing reasonableness of sentence, comparing

sentence imposed against statutory maximum). In the light of the factors of

§ 3553(a), the district court’s sentence was reasonable.

      AFFIRMED.
