24 UNITED STATES V. MOHAMUD During the sentencing hearing, the district court acknowledged that, although the jury had rejected the entrapment defense, Youssef and Hussein “imperfect[ly]” entrapped Mohamud through their frequent praise and religious references, especially considering his youth. But the “horrific” nature of the intended crime, which would have resulted “in a great deal of death and mutilation,” still warranted a sentence of thirty years’ imprisonment. III. DISCUSSION A. Standard of Review We review the district court’s ruling on a motion for acquittal de novo. See United States v. Sanchez, 639 F.3d 1201, 1203 (9th Cir. 2011). When a defendant pursues an entrapment defense, we “should not disturb the jury’s finding unless, viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the government, no reasonable jury could have concluded that the defendant[] [was] predisposed to commit the charged offenses.” United States v. Davis, 36 F.3d 1424, 1430 (9th Cir. 1994). We review the denial of a motion to dismiss based on a violation of constitutional rights de novo. United States v. Brobst, 558 F.3d 982, 994 (9th Cir. 2009). We review de novo the denial of a motion to suppress evidence, but underlying factual findings are reviewed for clear error. United States v. Crawford, 372 F.3d 1048, 1053 (9th Cir. 2004) (en banc). We review for an abuse of discretion a district court’s decision whether to use its supervisory powers—in this case, the supervisory power to decide whether to suppress evidence as a sanction for the government’s late supplemental FISA notice. United States v. Stinson, 647 F.3d 1196, 1209 (9th Cir. 2011). Discovery
