202651P.pdf   07/01/2022  United States  v.  Caesar Vaca
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  20-2651
   U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri - Kansas City   
[PUBLISHED] [Stras, Author, with Loken and Shepherd, Circuit Judges] Criminal case - Criminal law. Where defendant had told police that he had never possessed a firearm, the district court did not abuse its discretion by admitting evidence that defendant had been convicted 20 years earlier for shooting a pregnant woman, as it was permissible extrinsic evidence to show he had lied about ever possessing a gun; defendant's sentence, an upward variance, was not an abuse of the district court's discretion and was not substantively unreasonable.
