United States v. Ridolfi, No. 13-2127 (1st Cir. 2014)
Annotate this CaseAfter a jury trial, Defendant was convicted of being a felon in possession of one or more firearms and of knowingly possessing one of more firearms. Defendant appealed, arguing that the evidence was insufficient to prove that he knowingly possessed the firearms and that he knew the firearms were stolen. The First Circuit affirmed Defendant’s firearms convictions, holding (1) the jury’s finding that Defendant knowingly possessed the shotguns found in the trunk of the car he was driving when he was found by police was supportable on the record; and (2) there was sufficient evidence to support the jury’s finding that Defendant knew the shotguns were stolen.
The court issued a subsequent related opinion or order on October 10, 2014.
