United States Fifth Circuit

A conviction and sentence for possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, resulting from an indictment alleging that defendant knowingly possessed two guns found in his vehicle the night he was arrested, is affirmed over claims that: 1) a jury charge was improper in allowing conviction even if jurors were not unanimous as to which gun defendant knowingly possessed; and 2) the district court improperly ordered him to register as a sex offender under Louisiana law.
