The document is a response from the United States government to the defendant Scott W. Rothstein's sentencing memorandum. Rothstein was convicted of RICO Conspiracy, Money Laundering, Mail and Wire Fraud, and Wire Fraud related to a Ponzi scheme. The government agrees to a variance from the guidelines sentence but objects to the defendant's request for a 30-year sentence, suggesting instead a 40-year sentence. The response discusses the guidelines application, the defendant's post-offense conduct, and the appropriateness of the sentencing guidelines in fraud cases.
