1Opinion of the Court

KANNE, Circuit Judge.

This is the second time this court has considered the case of defendant Wayne Stephens. Stephens, a Yale-educated corporate executive in New York, was convicted of three counts of wire fraud and was sentenced to 21 months’ imprisonment. We previously affirmed the conviction against a sufficiency-of-the-evidence challenge. United States v. Stephens, 421 *707F.3d 503 (7th Cir.2005) (“Stephens I”). In that opinion, this court also concluded that a prima facie Batson violation existed under step one of the three-part Batson test. See Batson v. Kentucky, 476 U.S. 79, 106 S.Ct.…
