United States Eighth Circuit

Defendant's conviction for abusive sexual contact is affirmed over defendant's claims that: 1) the district court improperly admitted allegations of his prior sexual misconduct under Fed. Rule of Evid. 413; 2) the district court erroneously denied a motion for new trial based on newly-discovered evidence that one of the alleged victims' testimony was coached by her parents; and 3) the evidence adduced was insufficient to convict him beyond a reasonable doubt.
