S.D.Ind.: One minute of furtive movements in a car before getting out during a stop was cause for a search of the car

Defendant drove .9 miles after police lights and the siren came on, and that was probable cause for evading a law enforcement officer and that was cause for a search of the car after defendant made furtive movements in the car waiting nearly one minute to get out. United States v. McPhaul, 2015 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 89671 (S.D.Ind. July 10, 2015).

The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children is granted permission to appear as amicus to explain what it does. “. NCMEC and the Government have established that NCMEC has a unique perspective that goes to the heart of the issue of the suppression motion—NCMEC’s relationship with the Government regarding reported instances of child exploitation and pornography. NCMEC has an interest that goes beyond this case regarding the viability of its CyberTipline as currently operated.” United States v. Heleniak, 2015 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 89728 (W.D.N.Y. July 10, 2015).*
