Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit August 26, 2002, Docket 01-1258 (United States v. Christopher D. Reyes)

CARDAMONE, Circuit Judge.

The government appeals from a district court’s judgment of acquittal after a jury had found defendant Christopher Reyes guilty of joining a conspiracy to transport stolen automobile airbags in interstate commerce. Among the issues we deal with is the doctrine of conscious avoidance in the context of a conspiracy.
