United States v. Ducoudray-Acevedo

by
The First Circuit affirmed Defendant’s convictions for tampering with a witness, victim, or an informant and for obstructing the due administration of justice. On appeal, Defendant argued, among other things, that a series of errors occurred at his trial that either singly or in combination required reversal of his convictions. The First Circuit disagreed, holding (1) there was sufficient evidence to support both convictions; (2) the district court erred in admitting into evidence a certain email, but the error was harmless; and (3) there were either no individual errors or the objections to the alleged errors were waived, with the sole exception being the admission of the email into evidence, but because the error was harmless, Defendant’s cumulative error argument was without merit.
