   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  05-3122
   Eastern District of Arkansas   
   [PUBLISHED] [Smith, Author, with Arnold and John R. Gibson, Circuit
   Judges]
Criminal Case - conviction and sentence. Convictions for mail fraud and wire fraud, money laundering and false statements are affirmed. District court did not abuse its discretion in refusing to suppress incriminating statements, as no right to counsel attached at the time she made the statements and were not made during the course of specific plea deals; did not err in removing counsel after defendant declined to waive actual conflict of interest; did not err in denying defendant right to proceed pro se four days before trial, as request was not timely and request was to delay or disrupt; did not abuse its discretion in admitting prior bad act evidence because of similarity of acts and use of limiting instruction; evidence was sufficient to support convictions; admission of prison records was not an abuse of discretion; omission of forfeiture in judgment was clerical error; sentence was not unreasonable. Enhancements for multiple victim, use of charitable organization, sophisticated means, and obstruction of justice were proper.
