for acceptance of responsibility if the defendant accepts a plea bargain. However, the decrease will not apply if the defendant demonstrates behavior, such as continued criminal activity, that is inconsistent with acceptance of responsibility. Increase in time to be served There are victim-related adjustments for hate crime motivation or vulnerable victims; official victims; restraint of victims; and terrorism. Adjustments can apply depending on the offender's role in the offense, which can include an aggravating role, a mitigating role. Enhancements apply for abuse of a position of trust or use of a special skill, using a minor to commit a crime, and use of body armor or a firearm in drug trafficking crimes and crimes of violence. In addition, there are enhancements related to obstruction of justice, including obstructing or impeding the administration of justice, reckless endangerment during flight, commission of an offense while on release, and false registration of a domain name. Adjustments also apply in cases involving multiple counts. Departures Departures upward or downward from the guideline range are appropriate for cases that deviate from the heartland of cases. Departures are allowed in cases involving substantial assistance to authorities in the investigation or prosecution of another person who has committed an offense. Indeed, the Sentencing Reform Act even allows a departure below the applicable statutory mandatory minimum in such cases. There is no penalty for refusal to assist authorities. The Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure and U.S. Sentencing Guidelines require that the prosecution file a motion allowing the reduction. The court is not required to grant the reduction, and may decline to do so if it deems the information provided by the defendant to be untruthful, incomplete, unreliable, insignificant, not useful, or untimely. The Guidelines provide, "Substantial weight should be given to the government's evaluation of the extent of the defendant's assistance, particularly where the extent and value of the assistance are difficult to ascertain." Some defendants attempt to provide substantial assistance, but their assistance is ultimately deemed not to be substantial, which prevents them from getting the departure even if they made incriminating statements. Other grounds for departure: Death (§5K2.1) Physical injury (§5K2.2) Extreme psychological injury (§5K2.3) Abduction or unlawful restraint (§5K2.4) Property damage or loss (§5K2.5) Weapons and dangerous instrumentalities (§5K2.6) Disruption of governmental function (§5K2.7) Extreme conduct (§5K2.8) Criminal purpose (§5K2.9) Victim's conduct (§5K2.10) Lesser harms (§5K2.11) Coercion and duress (§5K2.12) Diminished capacity (§5K2.13) Public welfare
