1Opinion of the Court
SELYA, Senior Circuit Judge.
These sentencing appeals reverberate with the echo of a question that we thought we had laid to rest in United States v. Reccko, 151 F.3d 29 (1st Cir.1998). This question involves the application of the two-level enhancement for abuse of a position of trust under the current version of the federal sentencing guidelines. See USSG § 3B1.3 (2006). Concluding, as we do, that the district court erred in its application of this guideline, we vacate the defendants’ sentences and remand for resentencing consistent with this opinion.
