What is the test for determining if there is sufficient evidence to support a claim of sexual assault?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from United States v. Kimbrew, 944 F.3d 810 (9th Cir. 2019):

We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. 1291. We review a sufficiency of the evidence challenge de novo. United States v. Doe , 842 F.3d 1117, 1119 (9th Cir. 2016). We are "obliged to construe the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution, and only then determine whether any rational trier of fact could have found the essential elements of the crime beyond a reasonable doubt." United States v. Nevils , 598 F.3d 1158, 1161 (9th Cir. 2010) (en banc) (internal quotation marks and citation omitted).
