• observing that defendant “did not have both an actual and a justifiable privacy interest in . . . his credit card statements”
• finding that the possession of one kilogram of cocaine was enough to support an inference of intent to distribute
• noting that, because the jury acquitted some defendants but not others, the “jury was plainly able to view [the multiple defendants] as distinct individuals in rendering its verdicts,” and there was no abuse of discretion in denying the motion for severance
• “Frequently, though, evidence associated with ‘suspected’ wrongdoing will not be admissible even for impeachment purposes, having no bearing on the capacity for truth of any witness.”
