its sentencing decision on the influence of Lopez's gang affiliation, his
history of violence, and the danger he posed to the community. Lopez
failed to demonstrate that the State's assertion constituted "impalpable or
highly suspect evidence," or that the district court relied solely on it when
rendering its decision. Silks v. State, 92 Nev. 91, 94, 545 P.2d 1159, 1161
(1976). Accordingly, we
ORDER the judgment of conviction AFFIRMED.
