The Defendant caught the eye of a local law-enforcement officer assigned to a federal task force, who watched Fairley conduct hand-to-hand transactions in the parking lot. When members of law enforcement closed in on Fairley and searched the parked vehicle he had frequented throughout the surveillance of his activities, they found handguns and a "bunch” of cash sitting in the open, as well as crack cocaine and marijuana in a compartment next to where Fairley had been seated.

A jury convicted Fairley of possessing with the intent to distribute crack cocaine, possessing a firearm after a felony conviction, and possessing a firearm in furtherance of a drug-trafficking crime. After receiving a thirty-year sentence, Fairley promptly appealed his conviction.
