U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 12-2054
U.S. District Court for the District of Nebraska - Lincoln
[PUBLISHED] [Colloton, Author, with Loken and Bright, Circuit Judges]
Criminal Case - conviction. Admission of expert testimony regarding habits
of drug dealers was relevant to rebut defense that defendant was merely a
drug user and not a trafficker and explained the significance of items or
activities in the drug trade even if cumulative. Any allusion to possible
sexual conduct by defendant was elliptical and too attenuated to prejudice
him unfairly. District court did not abuse its discretion in permitting
the expert testimony.
