Defendant's drug conviction is affirmed where: 1) the evidence was sufficient for a reasonable jury to conclude that defendant provided cocaine for drug transactions; and 2) certain challenged statements by a prosecution witness were not hearsay because they did not depend on the witness's truthfulness, memory, or perception.
