The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Gaggi, 811 F.2d 47 (2nd Cir. 1987):
The effect of these challenged instructions is determined in light of "the well-established proposition that a single instruction to a jury may not be judged in artificial isolation, but must be viewed in the context of the overall charge." Cupp v. Naughten, 414 U.S. 141, 146-47, 94 S.Ct.
