UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,
VERSUS
BENITO GONZALEZ,
Defendant-Appellant.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Texas
USDC No. C-97-CR-125-3
--------------------
January 27, 2000
Before DAVIS, EMILIO M. GARZA, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Benito Gonzalez appeals his conviction for conspiracy to
possess with intent to distribute marijuana. Gonzalez argues that
the evidence was insufficient to convict him. When the evidence,
both direct and circumstantial, is viewed in the light most
favorable to the jury’s verdict, the evidence was sufficient to
convict Gonzalez of each and every element of conspiracy to traffic
in narcotics. See United States v. Misher, 99 F.3d 664, 668 (5th
Cir. 1996); United States v. Dean, 59 F.3d 1479, 1485 (5th Cir.
1995); United States v. Resio-Trejo, 45 F.3d 907, 910 (5th Cir.
