Heading: Terry McCloud

Text: McCloud testified that: (1) on approximately twenty occasions he had purchased four to eight “cookies” of cocaine base from Chisolm and Bolware; (2) some of his purchases with Chisolm at Bolware’s mother’s property were made after McCloud was released from custody in April 2006; (3) some of his purchases with Chisolm occurred in the six-month period prior to June 22, 2006, when McCloud taken into custody again; (4) both Chisolm and Bolware were there for the majority of his purchases; and (5) that Chisolm would count the money as he 9 stood next to Bolware, who would be cooking the powder cocaine into cocaine base. Though some of the cocaine base purchases may have occurred prior to the alleged start date of the conspiracy (April 17, 2006), the district court did not abuse its discretion in admitting McCloud’s testimony as relevant to establish the formation and existence of the conspiracy on and after April 17, 2006, respectively.
