Description
Appellant, hereinafter referred to as defendant, was tried and convicted upon an indictment charging that "on or about February 1, 1949, at Albuquerque, in the State and District of New Mexico, the defendant * * * received and concealed a motor vehicle, to-wit: a 1949 Ford Sedan, * * * moving as a part of interstate commerce, and the said defendant then knew the motor vehicle to have been stolen" in violation of Title 18 U.S.C.A. § 2313. The case was tried to the court without a jury and this appeal is from the judgment and sentence entered upon the conviction. To constitute a violation of the foregoing statute, the burden was upon the government to prove that at the time the defendant received the automobile he knew it was stolen, and in addition that it was moving as, or was a part of interstate commerce. Defendant contends that there was insufficient evidence to show the existence of these two essential elements.
