1Opinion of the Court
MURPHY, Circuit Judge.
Timothy Donald Koons pled guilty to possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute within 1,000 feet of a public playground, in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 841(a) and 860(a), and to criminal forfeiture of property related to drug trafficking, under 21 U.S.C. § 853. On his appeal Koons challenges the constitutionality of 21 U.S.C. § 860(a) and argues that the district court1 erred by denying his motion *988to suppress and by not granting him a safety valve reduction or downward departure at sentencing. We affirm.
