CA7: No court has suppressed a Playpen SW, and changing the argument up a bit doesn’t succeed either

Every court to have dealt with the good faith exception in Playpen warrants has sustained them. This case attempts a different casting of the argument, but it’s rejected too. United States v. Dorosheff, 2024 U.S. App. LEXIS 19590 (7th Cir. Aug. 6, 2024).*

The defendant officers did not search this cell phone until after a warrant was obtained, so clearly qualified immunity. Morgan v. Phaypanya, 2024 U.S. App. LEXIS 19570 (8th Cir. Aug. 6, 2024).*

Defendant’s encounter with the police started as consensual because she was stuck in the snow, but the officer reasonably suspected she was under the influence. Romero v. State ex rel. Wyo. DOT, 2024 WY 84, 2024 Wyo. LEXIS 85 (Aug. 6, 2024).*

There was reasonable suspicion for defendant having sex with a minor in his car because of his being partly undressed and a sex toy in plain view. United States v. Goerig, 2024 U.S. App. LEXIS 19577 (3d Cir. Aug. 6, 2024).*
