D.S.D.: Time waiting for someone to come to remove car, tow truck or friend, was part of incidents of stop

When the vehicle will be removed because of no licensed person to take control, the time between the calling of the tow truck or a friend or family member to take it away and their arrival is part of the incidents of the traffic stop, and the use of a drug dog then was reasonable. United States v. Nelson, 2022 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 187344 (D.S.D. Oct. 11, 2022).

The ongoing nature of defendant’s meth dealing showed the search warrant was not stale. Aguinaga v. State, 2022 Tex. App. LEXIS 7604 (Tex. App. – Eastland Oct. 13, 2022).*

The officers had knowledge that the vehicle the juvenile was in had a handgun in it when it was stolen. That’s reasonable suspicion for a vehicle sweep. State ex rel. K.K., 2022 La. App. LEXIS 1761 ( La. App. 4 Cir. Oct. 12, 2022).*
