Description
WILLIAM M. TAYLOR, Jr., District Judge: This is an appeal by Alton Turner from a two-count conviction based on two provisions of the Internal Revenue Code relating to the sale of narcotic drugs. Count I was a violation of 26 U.S.C. ร§ 4704(a) for the sale of a quantity of heroin not from an original stamped package. Count II was for a violation of 26 U.S.C. ร§ 4705(a) for the sale of heroin in the absence of a written order. Although Appellant raises several issues, only one need be discussed as it is dispositive of this appeal -- whether the final argument of the Assistant U.S. Attorney was improper and had a prejudicial effect.
