What is the state's position on the adequacy of the evidence against the appellants in a sexual assault case?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Normandeau, 800 F.2d 953 (9th Cir. 1986):

In one way or another, all three appellants contend that the evidence against them was insufficient to support their convictions on one or more the charges. In evaluating this claim, we view the evidence in the light most favorable to the government. If we find that "any rational trier of fact could have found the essential elements of the crime beyond a reasonable doubt," Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U.S. 307, 319, 99 S.Ct. 2781, 2789, 61 L.Ed.2d 560 (1979) (emphasis in original), we must affirm.
