The stop of defendant\u2019s tractor trailer was valid, and it ended with the officer saying \u201cThat\u2019s it! Take care!\u201d but he called out to the defendant and engaged him in conversation which turned into a valid consent for continued detention. On the video, defendant consents repeatedly. United States v. Fouse, 2013 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 110317 (N.D. Okla. August 6, 2013).* [I never could buy into this \u201cconsensual continued detention\u201d stuff. When a cop is talking to you, you\u2019re not free to leave because, at least in this state, you’d be arrested for either fleeing or failing to obey a lawful order of the police. The cops know it, and the judges know it, and they let the cops get away with it. Period. End of discussion. This is pure judicial cognitive dissonance legalizing fiction and total deference to the police as the purported guardians of our freedom on the highway.]<\/p>\n
The record supports the USMJ conclusion of consent from the driver. United States v. Araiza-Carrillo, 2013 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 110552 (W.D. Ark. August 6, 2013),* R&R 2013 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 110561 (W.D. Ark. July 17, 2013).*<\/p>\n
2255 petition already denied on Fourth Amendment claim, and petitioner\u2019s attempt to recast them as an actual innocence claim fails. United States v. Martinez, 2013 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 109778 (D. Minn. August 5, 2013).*<\/p>\n
2255 petition\u2019s Fourth Amendment claim barred because it was raised on direct appeal. United States v. Opiyo, 2013 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 110026 (N.D. Tex. August 5, 2013).*<\/p>\n
Officers lacked reasonable suspicion for defendant\u2019s stop for (1) impeding traffic by opening his door when there was no traffic to impede, and (2) parking too close to a stop sign when the driver and passenger merely exchanged seats. The motion to suppress the stop is granted. United States v. Hutton, 2013 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 109779 (M.D. Tenn. August 2, 2013).*<\/p>\n
Defendant\u2019s admission he was a felon with a gun in the car was probable cause for a search of the car. United States v. Gardner, 2013 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 110467 (E.D. N.C. August 1, 2013).*<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
