   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  10-3769
                          and No:  11-1019
   U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Iowa - Sioux City   
   [PUBLISHED] [Shepherd, Author, with Wollman and Bye, Circuit Judges]
Criminal case - criminal law and sentencing. Evidence was sufficient to support defendant Robles' conspiracy convictions; hearsay evidence admitted at Robles' sentencing had sufficient indicia of reliability and the court did not err in considering it; no error in imposing an enhancement under Guidelines Sec. 3B1.1 for a management role in the offense; claims of ineffective assistance will not be considered in the absence of a fully developed record; 600 month sentences did not amount to cruel and unusual punishment; defendant Rodriguez was not entitled to a minor role reduction as the evidence showed he was deeply involved in the conspiracy.
