Heading: Prosecutor's slide presentation

Text: 97 Terry next argues that the district court erred in denying his motion for a mistrial based on the government's slide presentation, because the slide presentation referred to the Copes' conspiring to kill AUSA Bunning. We employ an abuse-of-discretion standard when reviewing the district court's denial of a motion for a mistrial. United States v. Yang, 281 F.3d 534, 549 (6th Cir.2002). 98 Terry was in fact acquitted on the charges regarding the attempt to murder AUSA Bunning. This undermines his position that prejudice resulted from the government's slide presentation. We therefore conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying Terry's motion for a mistrial.
