CARL E. STEWART, Circuit Judge:
This direct criminal appeal arises from the conviction following a jury trial of Maurice Montgomery (“Montgomery”) for conspiracy to possess cocaine base (also known as “crack”) with intent to distribute, and five counts of aiding and abetting the distribution of crack cocaine. Montgomery challenges the sufficiency of the evidence, and numerous district court rulings regarding allegations of prosecutorial misconduct. For the following reasons, we affirm his conviction.
