His wife's health has suffered. See supra n.3. His children have felt the sting of comments from others who have learned of David's conviction. And the stigma of the conviction haunts David, especially because it is antithetical to the values with which he was raised.

United States, 518 U.S. 81, 113 (1996). In this submission, we have tried to show that David Parse is a fundamentally decent man. He believes in family, hard work, helping others, and being actively involved in community. The conduct for which he was convicted, we believe, was at the periphery of the Jenkins scheme. On this record, we respectfully submit that a non-incarcerative sentence would be just. It would not diminish respect for the law. See United States v.
