    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.

      Joseph H. Gay, Jr., Assistant U.S. Attorney, U.S. Attorney’s Office, San Antonio, TX, for Plaintiff-Appellee.
    Margaret Loraine Schmucker, Alexander Lee Calhoun, Austin, TX, for Defendant-Appellant.
    Before REAVLEY, JOLLY, and DAVIS, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

Following a joint trial, Raquel Nicole Barrandey, Ulisies Quilimoco Rubio (Un-síes), and Moisés Quilimoco Rubio (Moisés) were convicted by jury verdict of conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute more than 500 grams of cocaine. Barran-dey was sentenced to 135 months of imprisonment and five years of supervised release. Ulisies was sentenced to 97 months of imprisonment and five years of supervised release. Moisés was sentenced to 121 months of imprisonment and five years of supervised release.

Barrandey and Ulisies argue that there was insufficient evidence adduced at trial to support their convictions and that the circumstantial evidence against them equally or nearly equally supported theories of guilt and innocence. This issue was preserved in the district court, and our review is de novo. See United States v. Percel, 553 F.3d 903, 910 (5th Cir.2008). Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the jury’s verdict and drawing all reasonable inferences to support that verdict, as we must, id., the evidence showed the following. Moisés had been identified by police in a previous investigation as a person who used the dietary supplement Inositol to cut cocaine. Mois-és, Barrandey, and Ulisies each separately bought large amounts of Inositol from a Vitamin World store. In all, 60 kilograms of Inositol, which is normally used to cut cocaine on a one-to-one ratio, were purchased. Drug paraphernalia, plastic baggies, digital scales, Inositol bottles, and acetone, which is used for repackaging cocaine that has already been cut, were all found present at the Rubio residence. Additionally, a very small amount of cocaine, the purity level of which was too low to be tested, was located at the residence. Bar-randey stated during an interview that she had seen the Inositol used in the backyard of the residence to cut cocaine. Confronted with this evidence, a rational trier of fact could have concluded that two or more people entered an agreement to violate the narcotics laws, that Barrandey, Ulisies, and Moisés knew of the agreement, that Barrandey, Ulisies, and Moisés voluntarily participated in the conspiracy, and that the conspiracy involved more than 500 grams of cocaine. See Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U.S. 307, 319, 99 S.Ct. 2781, 61 L.Ed.2d 560 (1979); United States v. Patino-Prado, 533 F.3d 304, 309 (5th Cir.2008); Percel, 553 F.3d at 910; United States v. Turner, 319 F.3d 716, 722-23 & n. 7 (5th Cir.2003).

Barrandey and Moisés argue that their Sixth Amendment right to confront witnesses against them was violated when the Government’s witnesses referred to a statement by a non-testifying confidential informant (Cl) that cocaine was being sold from Moises’s residence, where Barrandey also lived. As this issue was not raised at trial, we review it only for plain error. See United States v. Mondragon-Santiago, 564 F.3d 357, 361 (5th Cir.2009); United States v. Acosta, 475 F.3d 677, 680-81 (5th Cir.2007). Under that standard, an appellant must show a forfeited error that is clear or obvious and that affects his substantial rights. Puckett v. United States, 556 U.S. 129, 135, 129 S.Ct. 1423, 173 L.Ed.2d 266 (2009). If he makes such a showing, this court has the discretion to correct the error but only if it seriously affects the fairness, integrity, or public reputation of judicial proceedings. Id. Assuming arguendo that the evidence that Barrandey and Moisés complain of was testimonial hearsay that was barred by the Confrontation Clause in light of Crawford v. Washington, 541 U.S. 36, 54-56, 124 S.Ct. 1354, 158 L.Ed.2d 177 (2004), Bar-randey and Moises cannot show that their substantial rights were affected because the evidence was sufficient to sustain their convictions without reference to statements made by the Cl. See Puckett, 556 U.S. at 135, 129 S.Ct. 1423.

Finally, Moisés argues that the Government’s witnesses testified to statements Barrandey made during interviews that she had bought Inositol for another person, that she had seen another person cutting cocaine with Inositol, and that she had seen another person cook and smoke crack cocaine on spoons found in the house. Moisés contends that, because Barrandey did not testify at trial, he was denied his right to confront Barrandey as to those statements, in violation of Bruton v. United States, 391 U.S. 123, 88 S.Ct. 1620, 20 L.Ed.2d 476 (1968). We review this issue, raised for the first time on appeal, only for plain error. See United States v. Walker, 148 F.3d 518, 522 (5th Cir.1998). We conclude that there was no Bruton error as the out-of-court statements attributable to Barrandey did not directly implicate Moisés and, in light of the evidence that several people lived in the residence, that the Rubios had another brother who was a drug user, and that Moisés’ friends had been in the home to smoke marijuana, the jury could only complete the inference that Barrandeys out-of-court statements implicated Moisés by relying on the other evidence introduced at trial. See id.

AFFIRMED. 
      
       Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
