N.D.Cal.: Sweating and nervous def was not RS for a parole search

That defendant was sweating and nervous was not reasonable suspicion for a parole search. United States v. Hopkins, 2016 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 117742 (N.D.Cal. Aug. 31, 2016).

The government’s surveillance supports the conclusion there was probable cause for the search warrant for defendant’s place. And, the good faith exception would apply. United States v. Smaller, 2016 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 115123 (E.D. Pa. Aug. 26, 2016).*

“The Court does not agree with Defendant that based on the facts in this case, probable cause was lacking for the search warrant. The information set forth in the affidavit itself was enough to support probable cause for the issuance of the search warrant. While Defendant may argue that this was a “bare bones” search warrant affidavit, it simply was not.” There were controlled buys and recordings. United States v. Lowery, 2016 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 116851 (D.S.C. Aug. 30, 2016).*
