Eighth Circuit -- United States v. Leo Villarreal


[PUBLISHED] [Smith, Author, with Beam and Loken, Circuit Judges]
Criminal case - Criminal law. Speedy Trial Act claim rejected as the continuances granted in the case served the ends of justice and were excludable under the speedy-trial calculation under 18 U.S.C. Sec. 3161(h)(7)(A); Indictment was sufficient to allege an offense under 18 U.S.C. Sec. 2241(a)(1); Evidence was sufficient to support defendant's conviction for attempted sexual abuse under 18 U.S.C. Sec. 2242(B); claim of fatal variance between indictment and proof rejected.
