Mandujano was convicted for attempting to distribute heroin based on the testimony of an undercover police officer. Mandujano argued that his actions were only preparation, not an attempt, and that the evidence was insufficient to support the jury's verdict. The court allowed Agent Cavalier's testimony about his understanding of the word "stuff" and his state of mind after Mandujano's deal was aborted.
