1Opinion of the Court
BAUER, Chief Judge.
In a forty-eight count indictment, twenty-six people were charged with mail fraud, racketeering, and conspiracy as a result of their association with a scheme involving staged automobile accidents, padded medical bills, and fraudulent insurance claims. After an eleven-week trial, the jury , convicted the defendants in this consolidated appeal, Forest Bailey, Ben Israel, Steve Johnson, Margaret Neely, and Cornell Stokes, of substantially all the counts with which they were charged. We find no merit in their challenges to these convictions, and affirm them in all respects.
