UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Keitus Leo HURT, Defendant-Appellant, 228 F. App'x 932

PER CURIAM: Keitus Leo Hurt (“Hurt”) appeals his convictions for possession of cocaine in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 844(a); use of a place for the purpose of distributing a substance containing cocaine base in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 856(a)(1) and (b); and possession with the intent to distribute more than 50 grams of a substance containing cocaine base in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1) and (b)(1)(A). Hurt argues that there was insufficient evidence to allow a rational fact finder to conclude that the b eyonda-reasonable-doubt standard had been met.

Upon de novo review, and after reviewing the briefs and record, we find that there was more than sufficient evidence for a reasonable jury to find Hurt guilty of the crimes with which he was charged. The testimony of Adam Hill, the only passenger in the car when Hurt was arrested, and the testimony of Connie Simms, Hurt’s former girlfriend who resided at the home where police found drugs that Hurt had stashed, both support the verdict. Moreover, the jury could have found Hurt’s testimony in his own defense incredible. Accordingly, we affirm the convictions. AFFIRMED.
