United States Seventh Circuit

Affirmed a life sentence on charges of selling heroin that led to a user's death. The case was procedurally complex because the defendant had filed collateral attacks on his sentence in both the Northern District of Iowa (where his trial occurred) and the Southern District of Indiana (where he is confined), and later appealed to both the Seventh Circuit and Eighth Circuit.
