United States v. Cano-Guel

BENAVIDES, Circuit Judge:

Francisco Cano-Guel (“Cano-Guel”) appeals from his criminal conviction and sentence for importation of and possession with intent to distribute marijuana. Cano-Guel contends that the evidence was insufficient to support his two count conviction, that the district court committed plain error in failing to define “knowingly” in its jury charge, and that the district court erred in refusing to reduce his offense level for acceptance of responsibility. For the reasons set forth below, we AFFIRM both Cano-Guel’s conviction and sentence.
