Is there any case law where a defendant who was convicted of possession with intent to distribute drugs was found to be armed with a gun at the time of the crime?

Cannon was armed with a weapon at the time of the offense and evidence to that effect was admitted. He argues that the gun proved nothing and the evidence was highly prejudicial, outweighing any probative effect it might have had. That was for the trial court to weigh in the exercise of its discretion. United States v. Ravich 421 F.2d 1196 (2d Cir. 1970), cert. denied 400 U.S. 834, 91 S.Ct. 69, 27 L.Ed.2d 66 (1970); Rivers v. United States, 270 F. 2d 435 (9th Cir. 1959), cert. denied 362 U.S. 920, 80 S.Ct. 674, 4 L.Ed.2d 740 (1960). There was no abuse of discretion here. The charge of possession with intent to distribute made relevant all of the surrounding circumstances. It may reasonably be inferred that an armed possessor of drugs has something more in mind than mere personal use.

Affirmed.
