NE: DMV record error did not support GFE for stop

Defendant was stopped because the color of the vehicle did not match the DMV record, which turned out to be erroneous. This was chargeable to the state, and the good faith exception did not apply. State v. Bromm, 20 Neb. App. 76, 819 N.W.2d 231 (2012).*

The officer was uncontradicted, and the evidence supports the trial court’s conclusion there was reasonable suspicion for the stop. Cocaine was found in defendant’s mouth during the stop. State v. Harris, 98 So. 3d 903 (La. App. 4 Cir. 2012).*

“[A]t the time S made the investigatory stop of the defendant, he had a reasonable suspicion that the defendant had just committed the burglary reported by police dispatch, and the totality of the circumstances, including the defendant’s lone presence, close in temporal and physical proximity to the scene of the burglary and his behavior and demeanor immediately before S stopped him, supported the court’s finding of reasonable suspicion to stop the defendant, and because this court determined that S’s stop of the defendant was not unlawful, it was not necessary to address the issue of whether it tainted the defendant’s consent to the search of his car.” (Syllabus) State v. Miller, 2012 Conn. App. LEXIS 383 (August 14, 2012).*
