4996 UNITED STATES v. PRIME[11] In this case, application <strong>of</strong> the Dickson and Jeffriesfactors suggests that the extrinsic evidence did not affect theverdict. Although the jury had access to the evidence forapproximately three hours, jury review <strong>of</strong> the Storer reportwas not prejudicial, as it did not include anything that had notalready been testified to at trial. The fingerprint exhibits werealso cumulative <strong>of</strong> what had been testified to and admitted attrial. Likewise, the money order, checks, and e-mail correspondencewere cumulative <strong>of</strong> evidence introduced at trial,and would have been admissible had the prosecution chosento lay the proper foundation. As the judge stated during hisattempt to resolve this problem, “if [money orders, or otheritems] had been incriminating, I’m sure the Governmentwould have <strong>of</strong>fered it . . . .”[12] <strong>Prime</strong>’s main concern relates to his and Cahill’s priorconviction reports. The court, however, after specificallyinquiring <strong>of</strong> the jury, found that the jury had not reviewed thecertified copies <strong>of</strong> convictions <strong>of</strong> either Cahill or <strong>Prime</strong>.Moreover, the court determined that even if the jury had seenthe reports, they would not have affected the verdict. The onlyevidence in addition to the five felonies <strong>Prime</strong> admitted toduring his testimony was a conviction for possession <strong>of</strong> anincendiary device. If the jury had discovered this evidence, itwould not have affected the verdict because evidence introducedat trial already established that <strong>Prime</strong> had in the pastarmed himself with weapons and had obtained stun guns.With regard to Cahill’s prior convictions, there is no possibilitythat that information would have affected the verdictbecause as the judge commented, “I’m not sure the jurywould be surprised to find that Mr. Cahill had some prior convictions,since everyone else in the apartment seemed to . . . .”In addition to the lack <strong>of</strong> prejudice, the judge also issued twoseparate curative instructions, which under Jeffries, weighs infavor <strong>of</strong> finding that the government established, beyond areasonable doubt, that the extrinsic evidence did not affect theverdict. Jeffries, 114 F.3d at 1491.
[13] The extrinsic evidence given to the jury was cumulativeand non-prejudicial, and the court gave proper curativeinstructions. Therefore, in light <strong>of</strong> the entire record, we concludethat the extrinsic evidence had no impact on the verdict.We affirm the denial <strong>of</strong> the motion for mistrial.AFFIRMED.UNITED STATES v.
