MEMORANDUM

Abel Montoya-Gaxiola (“Abel”) appeals his enhanced sentence, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(5)(A) and U.S.S.G. § 2K2.1(b)(6)(B), for possession of a firearm or ammunition by an illegal alien in connection with another felony offense. Abel, his brother Rosario Montoya-Gaxiola (“Rosario”), and Fermín Ruiz-Braca-montes (“Ruiz”) were apprehended in the Arizona desert with or near blankets, large backpacks with significant food rations, a radio scanner, multiple cellular telephones, three firearms, and ammunition. All three made statements to border patrol agents.

They were each charged with illegal reentry and firearm possession, and various drug and firearm conspiracy charges. Ruiz pled guilty to certain charges and, as part of his plea agreement, the Government dismissed the others. The Montoya brothers pled guilty to illegal reentry, but went to trial on the other charges against them.

After four days of Government testimony, the district court directed a verdict in favor of the Montoya brothers on the conspiracy charges. Although the district court stated' that the Montoya brothers were clearly “up to no good,” it found that the Government had offered insufficient evidence of a specific plan or agreement to conspire to steal and sell drugs for those charges to go to the jury. The jury convicted on the remaining charges, including the firearm possession charge against Abel.

At Abel’s sentencing, the district court considered Ruiz’s post-arrest statement as well as the factual predicate to his plea agreement, which he assented to at his change of plea hearing before the magistrate judge. It found that Ruiz’s statements were sufficiently reliable to consider at sentencing and determined that they, along with the evidence deduced at trial, proved by clear and convincing evidence that, for sentencing purposes, Abel had been part of a conspiracy. Abel contends that the district court’s reliance on Ruiz’s statements violated his Fifth Amendment right to due process and Sixth Amendment right to confrontation. We reject these arguments, and affirm.

The right to confrontation does not apply at sentencing. See, e.g., Williams v. New York, 337 U.S. 241, 250-51 , 69 S.Ct. 1079 , 93 L.Ed. 1337 (1949); United States v. Petty, 982 F.2d 1365, 1367-68 (9th Cir.1993); U.S.S.G. § 6A1.3(a). However, we have held that “a defendant clearly has a due process right not to be sentenced on the basis of materially incorrect information.” Petty, 982 F.2d at 1369 . “Due process requires that some minimal indicia of reliability accompany a hearsay statement.” United States v. Horvath, 522 F.3d 904, 906 (9th Cir.2008) (order denying rehearing en banc) (citation and internal quotation marks omitted). We review the reliability of evidence presented at sentencing for abuse of discretion. See United States v. Hernandez-Guerrero, 633 F.3d 933, 935 (9th Cir.2011).

The district court did not abuse its discretion in finding Ruiz’s statements reliable. Unlike in United States v. McGowan, 668 F.3d 601, 606-08 (9th Cir.2012), and United States v. Jordan, 256 F.3d 922, 931-33 (9th Cir.2001), Ruiz’s statements were corroborated by ample evidence presented at trial, such as the agents’ testimo ny, the Montoya brothers’ statements, and items found at the arrest scene. Rather than contradict the evidence at trial, Ruiz’s statements completed the picture of what exactly the three men were doing in the desert. Thus the district court’s conclusion that Ruiz’s statements were reliable was not “illogical, implausible or without support in inferences that may be drawn from the facts in the record.” Meier v. Colvin, 727 F.3d 867, 869-70 (9th Cir.2013) (citing United States v. Hinkson, 585 F.3d 1247, 1261-62 (9th Cir.2009) (en banc)). For similar reasons, the district court did not abuse its discretion in concluding that the Government established Abel’s involvement in a conspiracy by clear and convincing evidence.

AFFIRMED.

This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3. . To avoid confusion, we refer to the Montoya brothers individually by their first names, as warranted. . In an opinion filed concurrently with this memorandum disposition, we reversed Rosario’s conviction on Count V relating to the firearm possession charge under 28 U.S.C. § 5861 (d). See United States v. Montoya-Gaxiola, No. 14-10255, 796 F.3d 1118 , 2015 WL 4716903 (9th Cir. filed August 10, 2015).
