Description

Tony Murphy ("Murphy") was indicted for violation of 18 U.S.C.A. §§ 111(a)(1), (b), 1114 (West Supp. 1994), i.e., assault with a dangerous weapon upon Deputy Travis Baker ("Baker"), a person assisting a federal employee.*fn* Murphy moved unsuccessfully to dismiss the indictment for want of jurisdiction, contending that Baker, a state employee, was not protected by §§ 111, 1114. The district court denied this motion, concluding that it had jurisdiction to entertain prosecution of the suit. The case proceeded to trial, and Murphy was convicted of assault with a deadly weapon. Murphy now appeals, again contending that the district court lacked jurisdiction to entertain this case and that the evidence was insufficient to sustain the conviction. Concluding that §§ 111, 1114 apply to Baker and that the evidence was sufficient to sustain the conviction, we affirm.
