OPINION
_________________________
PER CURIAM. Antoine Thompson appeals his conviction and sentence for murdering a
fellow inmate while imprisoned. He argues that (1) the exclusion of his experts’ testimony was
improper; (2) his charge under 18 U.S.C. § 1118 for murder while “under a sentence for a term
of life imprisonment” should have been dismissed because the underlying life sentence is
unconstitutional; and (3) the medical examiner’s testimony violated his Confrontation Clause
rights. For the reasons stated below, we affirm. |
