United States Tenth Circuit

A conviction and sentence for bank robbery is affirmed over claims of error regarding: 1) whether the indictment was inadequate for merely citing to the aiding-and-abetting statute without including language describing defendant's role; 2) the reasonableness of his sentence; and 3) violations to his right to a jury by having his sentence enhanced by the judge based on a preponderance of the evidence.
