Question: If there is no audio, can a CI's (with criminal history) testimony along with the Investigator's Testimony of a controlled buy be enough to support a conviction beyond reasonable doubt? Is there any kind of grounds to a directed acquittal, or would this be something for the jury to decide?

Also are there any rules/Guidelines of how a controlled buy must be supervised (eg. Searched before/After, Watched entering the property.. stuff like that)

Answer: Yes. There are many grounds for a direct acquittal, which means that a jury has been selected and a skilled attorney has corss-examined the state's witnesses, and proven that there is not enough evidence to go to a jury. Do you have a skilled defense attorney? There are no statutory rules governing a controlled buy. Everything concerning the controlled buy would need to be argued to a jury.
