Jury Verdict Form
United States District Court
for the
District of ________________
UNITED STATES
v.
DANIEL McPHERSON
Criminal Docket: 07-0007
VERDICT
Question to be Answered by the Jury
Answer "Yes" or "No" to the following question. A "Yes" answer must be based on the standard of beyond reasonable doubt. If you do not find that a "Yes" answer is supported beyond a reasonable doubt, then answer "No." The term beyond reasonable doubt is as defined in Charge Seven of the Jury Instructions. It is repeated below for your convenience:
It is not required that the government prove guilt beyond all possible doubt. The test is one of reasonable doubt. A reasonable doubt is a doubt based upon reasonable common sense—the kind of doubt that would make a reasonable person hesitate to act. Proof beyond a reasonable doubt, must, therefore, be proof of such a convincing character that a reasonable person would not hesitate to rely and act upon it in the most important of his or her affairs.

Did the Defendant, Daniel McPherson, distribute, dispense, or possess with intent to distribute not more than 50 kilograms but not less than 7 kilograms of marijuana, in violation of 21 U.S.C.A. SS841(a)(b)(D)?
