U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit

United States v. Tianna Barber

August 14, 2026

Summary

The court affirmed Barber’s convictions and 150-month sentence. It held that the agent permissibly interpreted coded drug-trafficking language, that the controlled-buy video contained no hearsay statements barred by the Confrontation Clause, and that Barber failed to show plain error in the drug-quantity calculation underlying her Guidelines range.
