1Opinion of the Court
HUCK, District Judge:
Appellant Emiliano Ramirez-Garcia challenges the district court’s decision to impose a 16-level enhancement to his base level offense score pursuant to U.S. Sentencing Guideline (“USSG”) § 2L1.2(b)(l)(A). The district court based the enhancement on its finding that the North Carolina statute under which Ramirez-Garcia previously was convicted, N.C. Gen.Stat. § 14-202.1, constituted “sexual abuse of a minor” and, thus, was a “crime of violence” pursuant to the Sentencing Guidelines. For the reasons discussed below, the Court affirms the judgment of the district court.
