HABHAB, Chief Judge.
Kristina Joy Fetters appeals from the judgment and sentence entered following her conviction of first-degree murder. She challenges (1) the sufficiency of evidence to support her conviction; (2) the district court’s exclusion of her proposed jury instruction to inform the jury of the consequences of a not guilty by reason of insanity or diminished capacity verdict; (3) a violation of her Sixth Amendment right to a jury comprised of a fair cross-section of the community; and (4) the district court’s decision to allow color autopsy photos of the victim, Arlene Klehm.
