   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  06-2726
   U.S. District Court for the District of South Dakota   
   [PUBLISHED] [Colloton, Author, with Gruender, Circuit Judge,
   and Goldberg, Judge of the U.S. Court of International Trade]
Criminal case - Criminal law and sentencing. Defendant was not in police custody when he made certain statements at a hospital concerning a fatal accident; statements were voluntarily made and were admissible; no error in admitting evidence of defendant's two prior convictions for driving under the influence as the convictions bore on the issue of knowledge of risk of harm; government violated the Jencks Act by failing to produce an agent's report, as defendant could not show prejudice from the violation; claims of prosecutorial misconduct rejected; no error in imposing an adjustment under Guidelines Sec. 3C1.1 for obstruction of justice based on defendant's perjury; 144-month sentence for involuntary manslaughter was not unreasonable as it was within the applicable Guidelines range and did not create disparities among similarly-situated defendants.
