   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  15-1601
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - St. Louis   
[PUBLISHED] [Colloton, Author, with Wollman and Melloy, Circuit Judges] Criminal case - Criminal law. Claim of outrageous government conduct in reverse-sting operation rejected as the government's actions in infiltrating defendant's criminal organization did not transgress the bounds of constitutionally permissible investigative methods; no error in denying defendant's request for an entrapment instruction because the evidence showed defendant was predisposed and eager to commit the crime as evidenced by the fact that as soon as it was proposed he began suggesting means of accomplishing it and distributing any drugs stolen during the stash house robbery.
