How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- holding evidence of conspiracy to distribute meth was sufficient because phone records corroborated cooperating witnesses’ testimony
- holding defendant “waived the right to contest” a jury instruction on appeal because she “jointly proposed the disputed instruction and never objected”
- noting that uncorroborated testimony of a single witness can be sufficient to sustain conviction
- “Tillman’s participation in the con- spiracy spanned years, with multiple drug transactions and multiple cus- tomers. Because it was not a single, isolated sale, the buyer-seller instruc- tion was not supported by the evidence.”
