Following a conviction for unlawful firearm and ammunition possession, and maintaining a residence for the purpose of storing, distributing and using controlled substances, denial of defendant's motion for a new trial and partial denial of his motion for judgment of acquittal are affirmed over claims of error regarding: 1) the sufficiency of the evidence; 2) the introduction of three pieces of evidence, which were allegedly inadmissible hearsay and their introduction violated defendant's confrontation rights; and 3) an alleged Brady violation.
