OPINION

KING, Circuit Judge:

Ammad Bashaun Perry was convicted of one count of witness tampering, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1512(b)(3). On appeal, Perry contends that there was insufficient evidence to support the verdict. He also asserts that the district court erred both in denying his pretrial motion to dismiss the charge because of prosecutorial vindictiveness and in denying his motion for a new trial. For the reasons explained below, we affirm.
