(1967), challenging the substantive reasonableness of the sentence. Upon careful review, we conclude that the sentence is not substantively unreasonable, as the court did not commit a clear error of judgment in weighing the appropriate sentencing factors, see United States v. Garcia,946 F.3d 413
, 419 (8th Cir. 2019); and the sentence is below the Guidelines range, see United States v. Moore,581 F.3d 681
, 684 (8th Cir. 2009) (per curiam). We have also independently reviewed the record under Penson v. Ohio,488 U.S. 75
(1988), and have found no non-frivolous issues for appeal. Accordingly, we grant counsel’s motion to withdraw and affirm. ______________________________ -2-
