United States v. Williams

Following a routine traffic stop, police charged Defendant-Appellant Mark Williams with one count of being a felon in possession of a firearm and one count of possessing a firearm after being convicted of a misdemeanor crime of domestic violence. After the district court denied his motion to suppress, he was tried and found guilty on both counts for which he was sentenced to 80 months' imprisonment. On appeal to the Tenth Circuit, Defendant challenged the district court's denial of his motion to suppress. Upon careful review of the trial court record, the Tenth Circuit concluded the district court properly denied Defendant's motion to suppress. Accordingly, the Court affirmed Defendant's conviction and sentence.
