113691P.pdf 12/20/2012 United States v. Roger Bugh
U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 11-3691
U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - St. Paul
[PUBLISHED] [Shepherd, Author, with Murphy and Bye, Circuit Judges]
Criminal case - Criminal law and Sentencing. Evidence supported the
jury's rejection of defendant's entrapment defense; government's conduct
in the case represented an aggressive and persistent investigation and not
the kind of outrageous conduct that shocks the conscience; even if the
audio tapes destroyed by the police were potentially useful to defendant,
he presented no evidence that the officer acted in bad faith or that the
recordings were potentially exculpatory; district court did not err, in light
of this court's precedents, in determining that defendant's burglary
convictions were violent felonies under the Armed Career Criminal Act.
