Text: 10 In order to sustain the conviction for aiding and abetting the manufacture of methamphetamine, we must find that the evidence and all reasonable inferences drawn therefrom establish: 11 (1) that the accused had the specific intent to facilitate the commission of a crime by another, (2) that the accused had the requisite intent of the underlying substantive offense, (3) that the accused assisted or participated in the commission of the underlying substantive offense, and (4) that someone committed the underlying substantive offense. 12 Litteral, 910 F.2d at 550 (citation omitted). A reasonable jury could have inferred all these elements from the facts discussed above. There was ample evidence introduced to support the conclusion that appellant was assisting and intended to assist Johnson in the manufacture of methamphetamines by providing the raw materials and knowledge necessary to produce the methamphetamine, and by selling the finished product.
