in [1]this opinion by Judge Kleinfeld, you get the feeling the
conviction is going to be affirmed:
Gregg Crampton was driving his niece and her three-year old
daughter around as he made a methamphetamine delivery. He realized
his probation officer had seen him, so he sped away and told his
niece to throw the methamphetamine and needles they had out of the
window. She refused, so he pointed his gun at her, threatened her,
and told her to get out of the car. She pointed out that the car
was going too fast, so he slowed down and pushed her and her
three-year-old out of the car.
