Gregory Chandler -- Rebuttal Evidence in Cocaine Litigation

In United States v. Mejia, 600 F. 3d 12 (1st Cir. 2010) the Court affirmed a conviction for conspiracy to distribute cocaine, finding no abuse of discretion in the admission of drug ledgers apparently in the defendant's handwriting, as the evidence tended to rebut his central defense that he was "merely present" at a drug deal and otherwise uninvolved in the charged conspiracy.
