United States Seventh Circuit

Defendant's drug conspiracy conviction is affirmed where: 1) the government put forth sufficient evidence of defendant's involvement in the conspiracy; and 2) a witness's new statement did not meet the requirements for newly discovered evidence to warrant a new trial. However, his sentence is vacated where the district court erred in determining the amount of cocaine attributable to the conspiracy.
