Description
James Campy Irby appeals from a judgment of the District Court rendered on October 6, 1961 whereby he was sentenced to a fine and imprisonment for violation of the Federal Narcotic Acts after he had been found guilty as charged in two counts of an indictment. The first count charged that on March 31, 1961, at the Washington National Airport, in violation of 21 U.S.C.A. § 174, Irby received, concealed and transported 11.7 ounces of heroin knowing that the drug had been imported into the United States contrary to law. The second count charged that on March 31, 1961, in violation of Section 4704(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, 26 U.S.C. § 4704(a), he had purchased, sold and distributed 11.7 ounces of heroin which was not in the original stamped package. On each count he was sentenced as a second offender to imprisonment for a period of 20 years and fined $1000, the sentences to run concurrently. Information furnished to the court pursuant to Section 7237(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, 26 U.S.C. § 7237(c) showed that the defendant, on May 16, 1946, had pleaded guilty to the violation of 21 U.S.C.A. § 174, and had been sentenced to imprisonment for the period of 15 months to 4 years and fined $10.00.
