   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  21-3262
   U.S. District Court for the District of North Dakota - Eastern   
   [PUBLISHED] [Benton, Author, with Smith, Chief Judge, and Stras, Circuit 
   Judge] 
   Criminal case - Criminal law. The court gave a general unanimity 
   instruction, and the failure to give a specific unanimity instruction 
   under 18 U.S.C. Sec. 2241(c) was not plain error; certain statements were 
   not hearsay, but even if they were, any error in admitting them was 
   harmless; admission of testimony from a forensic examiner was not error; 
   while it is a close call whether the government's closing argument shifted 
   the burden of proof and distorted defendant's case, the evidence of guilt 
   was strong, and the court would not reverse under a plain error standard 
   of review.
