   [PUBLISHED][Colloton, Author, with Riley, Chief Judge, and Benton,
   Circuit Judges]
Criminal case -criminal law and sentencing. Police had probable cause to believe defendant's vehicle contained methamphetamine, and evidence seized during the warrantless search of the car was admissible under the automobile exception; evidence was sufficient to support defendant's conviction for conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine and possession of the drug with intent to distribute; brief jury deliberation is not a sufficient basis for a new trial; defendant failed to meet his burden of proof for safety-valve sentencing.
