062333P.pdf   04/02/2007  United States  v.  Darren Youngman
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  06-2333
   U.S. District Court for the District of South Dakota   
   [PUBLISHED] [Benton, Author, with Bye and Colloton, Circuit Judges]
Criminal case - criminal law. District court did not err in denying defendant's writs of habeas corpus to compel the presence of three federal prisoners as witnesses, as defendant failed to show the witnesses's testimony was material or necessary for an adequate defense; any prejudice from a judge's comments about a reluctant witness was remedied when the court dismissed the counts relating to the witness and gave clarifying instructions; use of "on or about" in an instruction was not error as time was not an element of the offense; evidence was sufficient to support convictions for aggravated sexual abuse and assault with a deadly weapon.
