221455P.pdf   08/15/2023  United States  v.  Nora Guevara Triana
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  22-1455
                          and No:  222386
   U.S. District Court for the District of Nebraska - Omaha   
[PUBLISHED] [Erickson, Author, with Loken and Colloton, Circuit Judges] Criminal case - Criminal law. The district court did not err in denying defendant Leichleiter's motion to withdraw his guilty plea; the district court did not err in imposing a four-level enhancement under Guidelines Sec. 2K2.1(b)(6)(B) for possessing firearms in connection with another felony offense; the district court did not err when it refused to grant Leichleiter's request for an acceptance-of-responsibility reduction where he showed no remorse and attempted to withdraw his plea; the evidence was sufficient to support defendant Guevera's conviction for aiding and abetting kidnapping; while the jury instruction on kidnapping and aiding abetting was not a model of clarity when it charged kidnapping and aiding and abetting, it is clear beyond a reasonable doubt that a rational jury would have found Guevara guilty absent the alleged error; with respect to Guevera's claim that the district court erred in denying her request to admit the full recording of her interview with law enforcement, she failed to identify which portions were necessary to explain the admitted portions, and the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying her request.
