U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 10-2599
U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Des Moines
[PUBLISHED] [Benton, Author, with Smith and Gruender, Circuit
Judges]
Criminal case - Criminal law and Sentencing. Evidence was sufficient to
show defendant used real firearms during the bank robberies; no error in
permitting an FBI agent to testify that metal shards found at one of the
scenes were consistent with bullet fragments as that evidence went to the
issue of whether a real firearm was used; sentencing defendant for
multiple convictions did not violate United States v. O'Brien, 130 S.Ct.
2169 (2010).
