Officers did a knock and talk in a child pornography investigation, and talked to defendant about the possibility that his credit card had been compromised and used to buy child porn on the internet. Defendant agreed to a search of three of his computer hard drives. The situation was not coercive. Defendant even offered to make the officers coffee while they were there. \u201cWhile he may have been on prescription medications and may not be a morning person, there is no evidence that he was confused or unable to think clearly at the time he consented to the search. His own testimony about what transpired on that morning reflects that he was clear-headed when he voluntarily consented to the search of his computers.\u201d United States v. Schmit, 2011 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 7742 (D. Ariz. January 25, 2011), adopting 2010 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 140531 (D. Ariz. November 19, 2010).*<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
