View this case - free

View this case - free  

Overview: IJ did not find that inconsistencies in alien's claim about his threatened sterilization contaminated consistent testimony (albeit vague) he gave regarding his wife's sterilization; case was remanded so BIA could determine whether alien's adverse testimony as to his threatened sterilization was fatal to claim regarding his wife's sterilization.

View this case - free  

Overview: An alien's petition for review was granted where the BIA explicitly made "no determination" regarding an IJ's adverse credibility finding and indicated that it upheld the IJ's determination that the alien presented insufficient evidence, but the IJ's sole basis for denial of asylum and withholding of removal was his adverse credibility finding.

View this case - free

View this case - free  

Overview: Evidence was sufficient to support defendant's conviction of murdering an individual in order to obstruct justice in violation of 18 U.S.C.S. § 1512(a)(1)(c) where a reasonable jury could have inferred that the individual, who had cooperated with local police, possibly would have aided the federal agents then-investigating the "Patio Crew" as well.

View this case - free  

Overview: Introduction into evidence of the second defendant's redacted post-arrest statement at defendants' joint trial did not violate the first defendant's Sixth Amendment confrontation right where the second defendant's inculpatory statement was redacted so that the statement standing alone did not otherwise connect the first defendant to the crime.

View this case - free  

Overview: Imposition of a six-level enhancement pursuant to U.S. Sentencing Guidelines Manual § 2S1.1(b)(1)(B) in sentencing defendant for money laundering was affirmed because the district court's independent finding that defendant knew or believed that the laundered funds were the proceeds of illegal narcotics trafficking was not clearly erroneous.
