   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  14-3184
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas - Little Rock   
   [PUBLISHED] [Murphy, Author, with Colloton and Kelly, Circuit Judges] 
   Criminal case - Criminal law and sentencing. While arresting officer may 
   not have had authority to arrest defendant under state law because the 
   stop occurred outside the officer's jurisdiction, the traffic stop and 
   arrest were supported by probable cause and did not violate defendant's 
   Fourth Amendment rights; trash bags and a tote found in an open field had 
   no indicia of ownership and defendant did not have a legitimate 
   expectation of privacy in the bags; no error in admitting evidence that 
   defendant murdered a co-conspirator who had agreed to cooperate with 
   authorities as the court properly instructed the jury and the relevance of 
   the evidence to the issue of consciousness of guilt was not outweighed by 
   its possible prejudicial effect; the government needed only prove the 
   murder by a preponderance of the evidence in order for the court to 
   consider the murder in connection with the application of Guidelines Sec. 
   2A1.1 and Sec. 2D1.1(d)(1). Judge Colloton, concurring. Judge Kelly, 
   concurring in part and dissenting in part.
