Srinath Audityan has appealed his jury conviction of attempted enticement of a *410 child to engage in illicit sexual activity. Audityan contends that the district court erred in refusing to give a spoliation instruction. Because there is no reason to believe that the Government acted in bad faith in failing to record the telephone conversations at issue, the district court did not abuse its discretion in refusing to give the instruction. See United States v. Wise, 221 F.3d 140, 156 (5th Cir. 2000); see also United States v. Townsend, 31 F.3d 262, 270 (5th Cir. 1994) (standard of review). The conviction is

AFFIRMED.
