OPINION OF THE COURT

(February 22, 2012)

SWAN, Associate Justice.

Appellant, Lenny Alfred (“Alfred”), appeals his conviction for Unauthorized Possession of a Firearm in violation of title 14, section 2253 of the Virgin Islands Code. Alfred argues that there was insufficient evidence to prove that he “knowingly” possessed a firearm; therefore, his conviction is invalid and must be vacated. We conclude that the People of the Virgin Islands (“People”) presented sufficient evidence at trial to convict Alfred of Unauthorized Possession of a Firearm; consequently, we affirm his conviction. .
