Eighth Circuti -- United States v. Luis Jasso
No confrontation clause error in barring deft from crossing on old priors that would have made the witness subject to habitual offender law, as witness disclaimed knowledge of habitual offender risk.
No error in introduction of evidence as to brother's priors, as it was within the pendency of what was alleged to be a family conspiracy.
