Description
Robert C. Campion stands convicted, after trial to a jury in federal court, of conducting an illegal gambling business in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1955. Although Campion raises eight issues on direct appeal, we need only address his first assignment of error which we find to be dispositive. We agree with him that the evidence at trial, viewed in the light most favorable to the Government, Glasser v. United States, 315 U.S. 60, 86 L. Ed. 680, 62 S. Ct. 457 (1942), was insufficient to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that he was "an integral participant in the [gambling] business." United States v. Leon, 534 F.2d 667, 677 (6th Cir. 1976). We therefore reverse his conviction.
