Did the Fifth Circuit err by affirming the district court admission of hearsay statements made by an unindicted co-conspirator over the objection of Appellant's trial counsel?
QUESTIONS PRESENTED FOR REVIEW 1) Did the Fifth Circuit err by affirming the district court admission of hearsay statements made by an unindicted co-conspirator over the objection of Appellant’s trial counsel? 2) Did the Fifth Circuit err by affirming the district court’s failure to include Andres Torres in the jury instructions admonishing jurors regarding the reliability of the statements of co-conspirators? 3) Do the above described errors rise to the level of cumulative error? 4) Did the government present sufficient evidence at trial so that any reasonable trier of fact could find Appellant guilty when it relied wholly on the contradictory statements of co-conspirators to connect Appellant to the alleged conspiracy? i
