UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Wallace HOOKS, Defendant-Appellant.

United States Court of Appeals, Tenth Circuit.

January 6, 1986.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Kenneth C. Watson, Oklahoma City, Okl., for defendant-appellant.

Frank Michael Ringer, Asst. U.S. Atty. (William S. Price, U.S. Atty., with him on the brief), W.D. of Okl., Oklahoma City, Okl., for plaintiff-appellee.

Before McKAY and SEYMOUR, Circuit Judges, and BALDOCK, District Judge.


McKAY, Circuit Judge.

Wallace Hooks appeals his conviction of possession with intent to distribute phencyclidine (PCP), a controlled substance. He challenges the sufficiency of the evidence and claims that certain remarks made by the prosecutor during closing arguments constitute plain error. Appellant also contends that the trial court's failure to exclude certain prejudicial testimony on its own motion requires reversal of his conviction.
