1Opinion of the Court

MORRIS SHEPPARD ARNOLD, Circuit Judge.

After the trial court 1 granted Willie Roy Washington’s motion to suppress more than 17 pounds of cocaine seized from a bag, we reversed the suppression order and remanded the case for trial. See United, States v. Washington, 146 F.3d 536 (8th Cir.1998). A jury then convicted Mr. Washington of possessing cocaine with the intent to distribute it, see 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1). The trial court sentenced him to 120 months imprisonment. Mr. Washington appeals both the admissibility of the seized cocaine and his conviction. We affirm.
