1Opinion of the Court
Opinion by Judge FARRIS; Concurrence by Judge RYMER.
FARRIS, Circuit Judge:
Johnnie T. Warren appeals his conviction for first degree murder. 18 U.S.C. § 1111. He argues that the district court erred by employing the blind strike method of jury selection, admitting irrelevant and prejudicial evidence, refusing to submit his theory of defense instruction; and improperly instructing the jury that it could infer malice aforethought through his use of a knife. We affirm.
