The questions here alleged to have prolonged the stop were primarily related to officer safety and weapons and not drugs. Therefore, they were reasonable. United States v. Green<\/a>, 2025 U.S. App. LEXIS 3856 (11th Cir. Feb. 20, 2025).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He thus argues that his sentence is contrary to law because his conduct did not cause \u2018the harm contemplated by the statute.\u2019 [\u00b6] First, appellant’s assertion that the State caused the harm is devoid of merit.
