A jury in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas convicted Salvador Garcia, Jr., Jorge Rolando Garcia, Sr., and Toribio Arriaga-Guerrero of multiple charges related to a drug-trafficking operation. The defendants appeal their convictions by challenging various district court rulings. We find no merit in the defendants' appeals and affirm the convictions on all counts.
