Facts

The evidence against Carillo (D) included the testimony of an undercover officer who claimed to have bought a narcotics-filled balloon from D. D claimed that the officer had misidentified him. To rebut, the government offered, and the trial court allowed, evidence of two other drug sales made by D. The other sales were offered as modus operandi to establish D's identity. D was convicted and appealed.
