Blanca Ruiz and Alina Fonts v. United States

(I) Did the panel err in holding that the government’s witness intimidation could not render petitioners’ trial fundamentally unfair simply because the witness testified? (II) Did the admission at petitioners’ criminal trial of evidence of civil Medicare guidelines, with the instruction that such evidence could be considered by the jury in assessing criminal fraudulent intent, impermissibly reduce the government’s burden to prove all offense elements, including fraudulent intent, beyond a reasonable doubt, in violation of petitioners’ rights to a fair trial and due process of law?
