The following excerpt is from US v. Jones, 455 F.3d 134 (2nd Cir. 2006):
Jones contends that the evidence was insufficient to support his conviction for conspiracy to murder Day, arguing that there was no proof that he at any time agreed that Day should be killed. See generally United States v. Rubin, 844 F.2d 979, 983 (2d Cir.1988) ("The fundamental element of a conspiracy is unlawful agreement."). We reject his contention.
