   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  09-1544
   U.S. District Court for the District of South Dakota - Pierre   
   [PUBLISHED] [Bye, Author, with Beam and Colloton, Circuit Judges]
Criminal case - criminal law and sentencing. Evidence of prior acts of sexual abuse was properly admitted as it revealed a pattern of abuse quite similar to that alleged in this case; evidence was sufficient to show defendant knowingly abused the minor victim; sentence was not unreasonable, and the record showed the court considered the factors defendant argued weighed in favor of a lighter sentence.
