AR: Denying ownership of CDs found in def’s backpack denied him standing in the CDs

Defendant denied that CDs in his backpack were his, that somebody else must have put them there. Therefore, he lacked standing to contest a search of the CDs, and defense counsel wasn’t ineffective for not raising a losing issue. Rea v. State, 2016 Ark. 368 (Oct. 27, 2016).

The detailed tip from a grocery store employee to an off duty officer who was their security guard provided reasonable suspicion. State v. Hinmon, 2016 UT App 215, 2016 Utah App. LEXIS 223 (Oct. 27, 2016).*
