• recognizing that if the removal subsequent to a prior conviction is admitted, no Apprendi violation occurs
• holding that the date of a prior removal is not within the exception for judicial findings of a prior conviction identified in Apprendi
• finding that, although the enhancement of the defendant’s sentence, based on the district court’s factual finding of a subsequent removal, constituted plain error, relief was not warranted under the plain error standard
• affirming a sixteen-level sentence enhancement where the defendant failed to raise a reasonable doubt as to the fact of prior deportation
