Task: Wrong Candidate Generation
Input (English): in the district court to his own or Plaskett’s statements, our review of challenges to those statements is limited to plain error. See United States v. Marcus, 560 U.S. 258, 262, 130 S.Ct. 2159, 176 L.Ed.2d 1012 (2010). Here, we identify no error, much less plain error, in any of the district court’s rulings. In evaluating Barnes’s challenge to the admission of his own statement about killing a rival drug dealer who had intruded on his crack-dealing territory, we note at the outset that the statement was not admitted as “other crime” evidence, see Fed.R.Evid. 404(b), but as direct proof of the charged crack conspiracy and of Barnes’s firearms possession related to that conspiracy. As such, it was highly probative. See United States v. Concepcion, 983 F.2d 369, 392 (2d Cir.1992) (<HOLDING>); United States v. Jamil, 707 F.2d 638, 643 (2d

Output (English): recognizing substantial probative value of tape recording that provided direct evidence of knowledge element of crime charged
