Before BOWMAN, HEANEY, and FAGG, Circuit Judges.
                          ___________

PER CURIAM.

       Anthony Carniglia appeals his conviction for aiding and abetting a second-degree
murder. Carniglia contends the district court should have granted his motions for
acquittal because a reasonably minded jury could not find him guilty of aiding and
abetting the charged offense. Having carefully reviewed the record, we conclude
Carniglia's contention is without merit. We also conclude that an extended discussion
of the fact-intensive issue presented by this appeal will serve no useful purpose. We
thus affirm Carniglia's conviction. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
