CA9: Police supervisor’s alleged after-the-fact acquiescence in an alleged illegal search isn’t a § 1983 claim

A police supervisor’s post-hoc alleged acquiescence that he didn’t participate in an alleged illegal search doesn’t state a claim against the supervisor. Hunt v. Davis, 2018 U.S. App. LEXIS 26265 (9th Cir. Sep. 17, 2018).

The officers corroborated enough of the CI’s information to show probable cause. Defendant’s Franks claim doesn’t allege or show falsity to undermine it, let alone that it was included recklessly. United States v. Adams, 2018 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 157719 (D.S.C. Sep. 17, 2018).*
