Cirilo first argues that the District Court erred by
relying on disputed facts in the presentence report to calculate
the advisory sentencing range under the Sentencing Guidelines.
Cirilo's claim rests on Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 32,
which provides that a court, at sentencing, "must -- for any
disputed portion of the presentence report or other controverted
matter -- rule on the dispute or determine that a ruling is
unnecessary either because the matter will not affect sentencing,
or because the court will not consider the matter in sentencing."
