How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • “The district court’s decision to admit evidence is reviewed for abuse of discretion, given the judge’s position to assess the impact of the evidence in the context of the trial witnesses and evidence as a whole.”
  • ‘‘[t]here is no question that evidence of a defendant’s gang affiliation is potentially prejudicial and inflammatory, as it poses the risk that the jury will associate gang membership with a propensity for committing crimes and find the defendant guilty by association’’
