202191P.pdf   07/12/2021  United States  v.  Kevin Dalasta
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  20-2191
   U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri - Springfield   
   [PUBLISHED] [Smith, Author, with Arnold and Stras, Circuit Judges] 
   Criminal case - Commitment pursuant to 18 U.S.C. Sec. 4246. The district 
   court did not err in discounting defendant's independent expert's 
   evaluation regarding defendant's future dangerousness; the district court 
   did not shift the burden of proof; the district court's decision and 
   weighing of the experts' testimony was not based on the amount of time the 
   experts spent with defendant but, rather, on the weakness of defendant's 
   expert's analysis.
