context: . Given our disposition of these issues, we need not address Tinsley's other challenges to his sentence. As to Tinsley's claim that the 120-month sentence imposed by the district court is unreasonably long, we note only that we have rejected similar sentences in cases involving defendants with extensive criminal records.

citation_a.sentence: See United States v. Davenport, 445 F.3d 366, 372 (4th Cir.2006) (finding unreasonable a sentence of 120 months where advisory sentencing range was 30-37 months and defendant had more than twice the number of criminal history points needed to place him in category VI); see also United States v. Tucker, 473 F.3d 556, 564-65 (4th Cir.2007) (in case where advisory sentencing range was 24-30 months, finding sentence of 144 months to be excessive notwithstanding district court’s reasonable belief that the defendant, who was before the court on her third conviction for embezzling from an employer, was highly likely to re-offend). The district court on remand should give due consideration to these cases when imposing and explaining Tinsley’s sentence.
