United States v. Charles Winters
Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
Decided March 26, 1984No. 83-1058PublishedCited by 32 opinions
1Opinion of the Court
PREGERSON, Circuit Judge:
On this appeal, Winters challenges his convictions for kidnapping in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1201(a) (1982), and for transporting women in interstate commerce for immoral purposes in violation of the Mann Act, 18 U.S.C. § 2421 (1982). 1
Winters argues that we should reverse these convictions because the trial judge improperly permitted the jury to hear testimony about prior similar acts that Winters had committed and expert testimony about the subjects of post-traumatic stress disorder 2 and forced prostitution. We affirm.
