\u201cWe agree with the District Court that everything that occurred before the Rodriguez moment was within the scope of a normal traffic stop, and after that point, was supported by reasonable suspicion of criminal activity. Cpl. Conrad’s initial questioning of Ms. Stanger qualified as an \u2018ordinary inquir[y]\u2019 related to the stop. \u2026 It was not until after their conversation-approximately thirteen and a half minutes into the stop-that the stop was arguably extended. [\u00b6] But by that point, Cpl. Conrad had already observed sufficient indicia that the Stangers could be involved in drug trafficking. We determine the existence of reasonable suspicion based on the totality of circumstances.\u201d United States v. Stanger, 2025 U.S. App. LEXIS 2642 (3d Cir. Feb. 5, 2025).*<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThus, viewed as a whole, the affidavit raised a \u2018fair probability\u2019 that 4130 Lilac Avenue would contain evidence of Whited’s suspected crimes. See Sanders, 106 F.4th at 462. [\u00b6] Whited points to several supposed deficiencies in the affidavit, but none defeat probable cause.\u201d United States v. Whited, 2025 U.S. App. LEXIS 2774 (6th Cir. Feb. 5, 2025).*<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Defendant\u2019s arrest was valid with probable cause. \u201cDefendant has not established that the arresting officers’ reliance on the DOC warrant was not objectively reasonable, even after Blake\u201d held the prior offense might be invalid.
