OPINION
SEDGWICK, Judge.
Appellant Steven Sirek was convicted of murder in the second degree, Minn.Stat. § 609.19(2), and Minn.Stat. § 609.05 (1984). He contends a plea agreement entered into by his accomplice encouraged perjury and that the accomplice’s testimony was therefore inadmissible. He also claims the evidence was insufficient, the trial court’s decision was tainted by knowledge of appellant’s involvement in criminal activity because the court heard evidence at a Spreigl hearing, and that a double durational departure was not justified. We affirm.
