OPINION OF THE COURT

On August 3, 2005, following a trial by jury which began on August 1, 2005, Obens Lamour was found guilty of Armed Bank Robbery (18 U.S.C. § 2113(a) and (d)); Conspiracy to Commit Armed Bank Robbery (18 U.S.C. § 37); and Brandishing a Firearm During a Crime of Violence (18 U.S.C. § 924(c)(1)).

On November 3, 2005, he was sentenced to an aggregate term of imprisonment of 130 months. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. For reasons which follow, we will affirm the conviction.

I.

The trial testimony in this case consisted primarily of:

(1) Two bank employees, both of whom identified Lamour 1 as the person carrying a gun which looked like a real gun and taking money from the bank;

(2) Co-conspirator Cornell Tribbitt who described Lamour as one of the two men who went inside the bank. He also testified that later in the day after the bank robbery, Lamour showed him his gun, a .40 caliber weapon;

(3) Lamour himself who testified that he was forced to participate in the robbery by threats that he would be shot if he did not (SA:215); and

(4) The surveillance tape admitted into evidence showing Lamour in the bank at various locations.

II.

There are no non-frivolous issues presented for review. Counsel for Lamour has filed an Anders brief pursuant to our Local Appellate Rule 109.2(a), together with a motion to withdraw which we will grant. Lamour has filed a pro se “Formal Brief for Pro Se Appellant” and a “Formal Reply Brief for Pro Se Appellant.”

Initially, we note that the evidence was sufficient to support the convictions on all counts, based upon a review of that evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution. United States v. Messerlian, 832 F.2d 778, 789 (3d Cir. 1987) (quoting Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U.S. 307, 319, 99 S.Ct. 2781, 2789, 61 L.Ed.2d 560 (1979)). The verdict must be sustained if “ ‘any rational trier of fact could have found the essential elements of the crime beyond a reasonable doubt.’ ” Id. (quoting Jackson, 443 U.S. at 319, 99 S.Ct. at 2789).

Secondly, our review of the issues raised by Lamour in the briefs he filed on his own behalf leads to the conclusion that they are all without merit. 2

*127 First, he claims that the aiding and abetting instruction given by the District Court constituted an improper amendment to the indictment. Actually, the charge was listed in Count One (SA:27) of the indictment and the charge regarding it was proper.

Second, Lamour stated the trial judge allowed the prosecutor to use a myriad of improper methods calculated to produce an unfair trial. It appears that this myriad of improper methods is primarily directed at the manner in which the government presented identification testimony and, according to Lamour, improperly vouched for the credibility of a witness.

As to the identification testimony, a review of the trial testimony reveals no improper or suggestive identification procedures. It does reveal that there was some discrepancy in the testimony of the one teller who identified the defendant and the detective who showed her the photo array. The teller said she was shown two photo arrays, but the detective testified to only one. (Actually, the fact of Lamour being in the bank is admitted by him in his testimony, albeit he claims coercion).

Next, Lamour is mistaken when he suggests improper “bolstering the credibility of the star witness” (pro se brief p. 15). The argument of the government in this regard (SA:270) was a proper reference to matters the jury should consider in weighing credibility and no personal opinion was expressed.

Third, Lamour in his pro se brief alleges violation of his right to a speedy trial under the Sixth Amendment. He also alleges Fourth and Fifth Amendment violations.

With regard to the Sixth Amendment issue, Lamour does not contest the facts alleged in the government’s brief; namely,

(1) He was a fugitive until his arrest in Louisiana on March 1, 2005.

(2) On March 3, 2005, he was ordered detained and transferred back to Delaware.

(3) On March 24, 2005, he made his initial appearance in the District of Delaware.

(4) On March 31, 2005, he was ordered detained pending trial.

(5) On March 31, 2005, he was arraigned and requested and received until May 19, 2005 to file pretrial motions.

(6) Time was excluded under the Speedy Trial Act until June 6, 2005.

*128 (7) On June 6, 2005, the District Court held a status conference. Defense counsel advised the court that his client was possibly interested in a plea and requested additional time.

(8) The District Court granted an extension until July 7, 2005 and this additional time was excluded until July 7, 2005, the date of the next status conference.

(9) On July 7, 2005, the District Court set the trial date for August 1, 2005 and excluded time under the Speedy Trial Act until that date at which time the trial began.

There is no Sixth Amendment or Speedy Trial Act violation based upon those facts.

Lamour’s alleged Fourth and Fifth Amendment violations have no support in the record. There was no evidence seized from defendant or post-arrest statements taken. 3

III.

Based upon the foregoing analysis, we will affirm the judgment of the District Court. We also grant the motion of counsel to withdraw.
