In a prosecution of defendant for attempting to entice a minor to engage in sexual activity and for using the Internet to attempt to transfer obscene material to a minor, district court’s exclusion of prosecution’s Rule 413 evidence of two prior instances of similar conduct, is reversed and remanded as the record causes doubt whether the district court fully appreciated the legal relation between Rules 413 and 403.
