Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit January 11, 2002, No. 01-10070; D.C. No. CR-98-00743-JMR (United States v. Pisciotta)

MEMORANDUM **

1. The evidence against Pisciotta was sufficient to support conviction. The jury was free to disbelieve Pisciotta’s exculpatory testimony, see United States v. Ramirez-Jiminez, 967 F.2d 1321, 1328 (9th Cir.1992), and to believe government witness Moores instead, see United States v. Quintero-Barraza, 78 F.3d 1344, 1352 (9th Cir.1995).
