• holding that the admission of evidence that the defendant sold drugs on other occasions was harmless when the evidence that he committed the charged crimes was strong
• concluding that error in admitting evidence of defendant’s prior drug-dealing activities was harmless in part due to properly admitted testimony showing that defendant had dealt similar drugs on other occasions
• evidence of 15-year-old bank robbery conviction was harmless because of otherwise overwhelming evidence of guilt
• uncharged sales of prescription pills were relevant where they had same intent as the charged offense of possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute
• wrongly admitted evidence of drug deals was harmless given “strong” evidence of defendant’s guilt and other properly admitted evidence that he had distributed drugs to people other than the murder victim
• admission of 404 (b) evidence harmless where evidence of guilt was strong
