1Opinion of the Court
BATCHELDER, Circuit Judge.
Defendant Lourele Roberts (“Roberts”) pleaded guilty to one count of escape from federal custody, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 751(a). Roberts now appeals his sentence, arguing that the district court should have been estopped from finding that he was a career offender under USSG § 4B1.1, and in the alternative that a prior conviction for “simple escape” is not a “crime of violence” under USSG § 4B1.2(a). Finding no merit to his claims, we affirm the judgment of the district court.
