United States v. Pascual

SUMMARY ORDER

Defendant Minerva Pascual appeals her conviction, after a jury trial, of conspiring to import and distribute cocaine and her resulting sentence to ten years’ imprisonment. 1 Pascual argues principally that the district court erred in: (1) not suppressing evidence seized from her car; (2) declining to give a “missing witness” instruction; and (3) admitting into evidence cell-site records obtained pursuant to a subpoena. We assume the parties’ familiarity with the underlying facts, the procedural history, and the issues presented for review.
