United States Second Circuit

Conviction for assault resulting in serious bodily injury, 18 U.S.C. section 113(a)(6), is affirmed where, although the evidence was insufficient to establish the jurisdictional element of the offense beyond a reasonable doubt, the Metropolitan Detention Center where the crime took place is within "the special maritime and territorial jurisdiction of the United States."
