As we explained in United States v. Reed, 875 F.2d 107, 111 (7th Cir.1989): “[T]he test that the court must use is whether at the time of the motion there was relevant evidence from which the jury could reasonably find [the defendant] guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the government ... bearing] in mind that ‘it is the exclusive function of the jury to determine the credibility of the witnesses, resolve evidentiary conflicts, and draw reasonable inferences.’” (quoting United States v. Marquardt, 786 F.2d 771, 780 (7th Cir.1986)); see …

Therefore, we review his challenge using the standard of "whether the court's charge, as a whole, is a correct statement of the law and whether it clearly instructs jurors as to the principles of law applicable to the factual issues confronting them".22 A "deliberate ignorance" instruction has the potential to confuse the jury, because it allows them to find "willfulness" without finding that the defendant was "aware of the existence of illegal conduct".23 For that reason, "the instruction should rarely be given".24 A deliberate ignorance instruction is "properly given only when [the] defendan…
