Description
MEMORANDUM Wheelock appeals his conviction and sentence. A jury convicted him of eight counts of armed bank robbery (in violation of
18 U.S.C. § 2113(a), (d)) and eight counts of using or carrying a firearm during a crime of violence (in violation
of 18 U.S.C. § 924(c)). He contends that an enhanced sentence under 18 U.S.C. § 924(c) is inappropriate
where all the counts used to enhance his sentence were charged in the same indictment.1 He also argues that civil unrest
in Los Angeles following state court verdicts in the Rodney King beating trial denied him a fair trial. We affirm.
