Description
McMILLIAN, Circuit Judge. Maurice Lynell Smith appeals from a final judgment entered in the United States District Court1 for the District of Minnesota, upon a jury verdict, finding him guilty of two counts of bank robbery, in violation of 18 U.S.C.A. § 2113(a) (West Supp. 1992). The district court sentenced Smith to 87 months imprisonment concurrently on each count, three years supervised release, and a special assessment of $100.00. For reversal, Smith argues that (1) the district court erred in denying his motion to suppress evidence seized pursuant to a search warrant, (2) the evidence was insufficient to find him guilty of the March 12, 1991, bank robbery, (3) the district court erred in applying a two-level enhancement for an express threat of death, and (4) the district court erred in allowing the government to use a statement Smith made to pretrial services as impeachment during cross-examination. For the reasons discussed below, we affirm the judgment of the district court.
