CA5: IP address accessing bank accounts for alleged fraud was PC as to that address

“Based on these facts, it was not unreasonable for law enforcement to believe there was probable cause that evidence of the scheme would be found at Traore’s residence nearly a year after the bank account was last accessed from his home.” An IP address used to access the accounts was probable cause as to defendant, without showing who actually accessed it. United States v. Traore, 2020 U.S. App. LEXIS 26305 (5th Cir. Aug. 19, 2020).

A shed near a house was covered by the search warrant for the house. United States v. Babin, 2020 U.S. App. LEXIS 26301 (5th Cir. Aug. 19, 2020).*
