Cal.1st: Davis good faith exception applied to a pre-McNeely DUI warrantless blood draw

Davis good faith exception applied to a pre-McNeely DUI warrantless blood draw. People v. Rossetti, 2014 Cal. App. LEXIS 950 (1st Dist. October 22, 2014).

911 call from a name eyewitness to shots fired did not need corroboration. “In general, eyewitness accounts of an ongoing emergency ‘do not need corroboration, or a history of other accurate reports, to be believed.’” The ID, specific down to one wearing an “Elmer Fudd-type hat,” was reasonable suspicion when they were seen. In the stop, the officer asked defendant whether he was carrying a gun, and defendant responded: “I’m dirty.” United States v. Bennett, 2014 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 149495 (N.D. Ind. October 22, 2014).*

In this civil forfeiture case bouncing around the Texas appellate courts since 2009, claimant’s motion for summary judgment on the question of reasonable suspicion and length of the stop was not conclusive, and the state presented a fact question for trial. State v. Ninety Thousand Two Hundred Thirty-Five Dollars & No Cents in United States Currency $90,235.00, 2014 Tex. App. LEXIS 11626 (Tex. App. – El Paso October 22, 2014).*
