AL: SW to “any law enforcement officer ” in the state can be directed to one from a different county than the place of the search

A search warrant to “any law enforcement officer ” in the state can be directed to one from a different county than the place of the search. When defendant admitted that he had child pornography on the computer at his feet, the officer could seize it. State v. Hunt, 2020 Ala. Crim. App. LEXIS 40 (May 29, 2020).

There was probable cause for the search warrant for defendant’s Instagram account, and, even if not, the good faith exception applies. United States v. Kent, 2020 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 93808 (N.D. Ga. May 29, 2020).*

Defendant’s locked bedroom in the house was subject to search on his parole search waiver. It didn’t matter whether anybody consented to the entry and search. People v. Johnson, 2020 IL App (1st) 172987, 2020 Ill. App. LEXIS 329 (May 29, 2020).*
