   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  21-3122
   U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Central   
   [PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with Kelly and Kobes, Circuit Judges] 
   Criminal case - Criminal law and sentencing. The defendant did not pose an 
   objection to testimony from a police detective that the surveillance video 
   shown the jury depicted "muzzle flash," and he has not preserved any 
   objection for appellate review; even if the issue was preserved, the 
   admission of the muzzle flash testimony was neither an abuse of the 
   court's discretion nor plain error; in calculating defendant's base 
   offense level, the district court did not err in applying a 
   cross-reference to the guideline for "assault with intent to commit 
   murder; attempted murder" rather than the cross-reference for aggravated 
   assault as the conduct in question - an unprovoked attack where the victim 
   was shot seven times - demonstrated an attempt to kill or, at the very 
   least, an act in callous and wanton disregard of human life; no error in 
   making defendant's sentence consecutive to the state court sentences he 
   received in the matter.
