Text: 6 To establish a violation of 21 U.S.C. § 846 the government must prove (1) an agreement to accomplish an illegal objective, and (2) the requisite intent necessary to commit the underlying substantive offense. United States v. Mesa-Farias, 53 F.3d 258, 260 (9th Cir.1995). 7 The testimony of Julio Sanchez-Concha provided sufficient evidence to convict Hilt of conspiracy to distribute cocaine and marijuana. Sanchez-Concha was Hilt's supplier of drugs. Sanchez-Concha testified that Hilt agreed to distribute drugs with him. Moreover, Sanchez-Concha testified that he delivered cocaine and marijuana to Hilt and that Hilt then sold these drugs to other individuals. From this testimony, the jury could have found that Hilt and Sanchez-Concha agreed and intended to distribute cocaine and marijuana. 8
