Cyco at trial, especially after Pfau’s own defense opened the door to this relevant evidence. See State v. Sallis, 574 N.W.2d 15, 16 (Iowa 1998) (stating Iowa courts “grant the district court wide latitude regarding admissibility [of prejudicial evidence] and will disturb the court’s ruling only upon finding an abuse of discretion”). The trial court took great pains to ensure the questioning of Rice about Cyco was brief and did not invoke a discussion about gangs. The State heeded the trial court’s caution, and briefly discussed Cyco solely to impeach Rice. We also read Nance far differently than does Pfau. Nance did not announce that gang-related evidence is never admissible. See, e.g., Wedebrand v. State, No. 02-0568, 2003 WL 21543146, at *5 (Iowa Ct.App. July 10, 2003) (unpublished) (<HOLDING>); State v. Dixon, No. 00-829, 2001 WL 1450991,
