Questão jurídica principal
Whether the cantonal court arbitrarily assessed the cocaine quantity and purity and violated the presumption of innocence
Decisão extraída
No. The court could rely on the appellant's partial admissions, intercepted calls, and surrounding indicia to find trafficking in more than 18 grams of pure cocaine.
Fundamentação extraída
The appellant's changing statements were unstructured and his admissions were supported by objective telephone recordings. The purity assessment could be based on statistical data and additional indicia such as resale price, repeated sales, and his role as a low-level intermediary.
