United States Ninth Circuit
US v. BROWN, 01-30158, 01-30181
Conviction and sentence for possessing with the intent to distribute crack cocaine are affirmed where there is no evidence that witness's misrepresentation was intentional or that the prosecutor knew of the statement's falsity. The district court erred that it was precluded as a matter of law from considering the additional 34 grams of crack cocaine.
