Text: Dabney also challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to support his conviction. We review a sufficiency of the evidence challenge “by considering the evidence in the light most favorable to the government, deferring to the credibility determinations of the jury, and . . . overturn[ing] a verdict only when the record contains no evidence, regardless of how it is weighed, upon which a rational trier of fact could find guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.” United States v. Cummings, 395 F.3d 392, 397 (7th Cir. 2005). On this record, a challenge to the sufficiency of the evidence is frivolous. Dabney’s admission under oath to possessing the gun was corroborated by the testimony of the officers who chased and apprehended him. Dabney identifies only minor, immaterial inconsistencies in the officers’ testimony. The evidence supporting this conviction is overwhelming.
