¶5OPINION OF THE COURT
¶7The defendant, Frank Johnson, was convicted along with Robert Andre Ruff (“Ruff”) of kidnapping in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1201(a), transportation of a stolen vehicle in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2312, and conspiracy to kidnap in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1201. The defendant and Ruff have each appealed their convictions. In an opinion filed this day, we affirmed Ruff’s conviction. United States v. Ruff, 717 F.2d 855 (3d Cir.1983).
¶8The defendant raises a number of issues on appeal. He claims that the trial judge improperly refused voir dire questions posed by defense counsel; that the absence of any blacks on the jury that convicted him indicates a patently prejudicial plan of jury selection; that the statements of a prospective juror concerning one of the main government witnesses prejudiced the entire jury panel; that the trial court improperly presented the defendant’s admissions and/or confessions before sufficient corpus delicti was properly established; and generally, that he did not receive a fair and impartial trial.
¶9Having carefully considered each of these contentions, and finding each to be without merit, we will affirm defendant’s conviction.
