Question Presented (AI Summary)

Whether there is insufficient evidence to convict Mr. Bibbs of heroin distribution conspiracy and firearm possession by a convicted felon, and whether the convictions were against the manifest weight of the evidence

Question Presented (OCR Extract)

QUESTIONS PRESENTED I. Whether there is insufficient evidence for a rational trier of fact to convict Mr. Bibbs of conspiracy to distribute heroin and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, and whether the convictions were against the manifest weight of the evidence. II. Whether the proof at trial of multiple conspiracies, rather than the single conspiracy alleged in Count One of the second superseding indictment, constitutes a fatal variance between the proof at trial and the indictment that requires Mr. Bibbs’ conspiracy conviction be vacated. III. Whether the verdicts are so inconsistent as to be arbitrary or irrational. IV. Whether the sentence imposed by the trial court is procedurally and substantively unreasonable and excessive.
