sentence ended up more or less where it would have been if Parsley\
had pled guilty to 750 kilograms but then received the two level\
reduction for acceptance of responsibility. The government uses\
this to argue that Parsley suffered no prejudice in any event.\

var WPFootnote3 = '                   Parsley states that he does not contest the district\
court\'s finding of facts as clearly erroneous. To the extent\
Parsley disputes the district court\'s finding that Parsley knew at\
the time that he could have entered an open plea and contested the\
drug quantity at sentencing, we conclude that the factual finding\
was not clear error. There was ample evidence presented at the\
evidentiary hearing that both trial counsel and the federal\
prosecutor discussed this option with Parsley.\
