holding that judicial decisions can sufficiently clarify an unclear statute and provide adequate notice that the individual’s conduct is criminal
concluding that “[b]ecause neither this Circuit nor any other has published an opinion addressing this issue, the district court did not commit plain error” when it imposed a sentencing enhancement
noting that the particular evidence would have led to a conviction regardless of the prosecutor's statements
explaining that there is reversible error only when the failure to give an entrapment instruction “seriously impaired the defendant’s ability to conduct his defense”
“A defendant’s substantial rights are prejudicially affected when a reasonable probability arises that, but for the remarks, the outcome of the trial would have been different.”
