OH12: Factor in consent here was defendant was not a “newcomer to the law”

Defendant’s consent was found valid on the totality, and factor to consider is that the defendant is not a “newcomer to the law.” State v. Smith, 2012 Ohio 5962, 2012 Ohio App. LEXIS 5112 (12th Dist. December 17, 2012).*

Defendant’s stop for reckless driving was justified on the facts, so his identity as an illegal is not suppressed. United States v. Rosas-Herrera, 499 Fed. Appx. 249 (4th Cir. 2012).*

There was probable cause on the totality for the seizure of cash from the front seat of defendant’s car. He was on a known drug corridor driving a rental car he was not authorized to drive, with a prior drug conviction, going to a town where he had no address to meet somebody. United States v. Julian, 501 Fed. Appx. 869 (11th Cir. 2012).*
