U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 16-3649
U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas - Little Rock
[PUBLISHED] [Riley, Author, with Gruender, Circuit Judge, and Schreier,
District Judge]
Criminal case - Criminal law. Evidence was sufficient to support
defendant's felon-in-possession conviction; evidence of defendant's gang
membership was relevant to show why officers were present and took the
actions they did and to establish defendant's motive and intent; brief
expert testimony sharing only well-known generalities about gangs'
involvement in illegal activities did not tip the scales so much as to
constitute an abuse of discretion or unfair prejudice.
