United States v. Jerome Bass

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit
United States v. Jerome Bass, 270 F. App'x 467 (8th Cir. 2008)

United States v. Jerome Bass

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

This case is before us for the second time. In United States v. Bass, 478 F.3d 948 (8th Cir. 2007), we reversed the district court’s order granting Mr. Bass a new trial *468 on a charge of conspiracy to distribute drugs and remanded the case for sentencing. In the present appeal, Mr. Bass asserts that the evidence adduced at trial was insufficient to convict him. But, as we observed in the previous appeal, a police officer testified that Mr. Bass confessed to him and there was overwhelming testimony tending to show Mr. Bass’s involvement in the conspiracy. See id. at 952. The credibility of that testimony was a matter for the jury. Our previous holding is binding on us as the law of the case, and moreover we detect no error in it.

Affirmed.
