Bastian

MEMORANDUM *

Desmone Bastían appeals his conviction, and denial of a new trial, on charges that he violated 18 U.S.C. § 201 (b)(2). We affirm.

Bastian’s argument that the evidence was insufficient turns on his view that Sandra Maas’s testimony was incredible. However, we will not overturn a jury’s credibility determination unless the testimony is incredible or unsubstantial on its face. See United States v. Alvarez, 358 F.3d 1194, 1201-02 (9th Cir.2004). We do not think Maas’s testimony was, for material parts of her testimony were corroborated. In any event, even apart from Maas’s testimony, Bastian’s admissions, his cell phone records, and his own conduct suffice to show intent to accept consideration for passing Maas through the border. Thus, viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution, a rational trier of fact could have found corrupt intent beyond a reasonable doubt. See United States v. Carranza, 289 F.3d 634, 641-42 (9th Cir.2002) (articulating standard); United States v. Leyva, 282 F.3d 623, 625-26 (9th Cir.2002).
