D.Minn.: Overdose call justified frisk

Police encountered defendant because he was experiencing an overdose. A frisk of his pockets for the cause produced a gun. United States v. Wright, 2024 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 236845 (D. Minn. Nov. 25, 2024), adopted, 2025 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 4921 (D.Minn. Jan. 10, 2025).

The state search warrant here was without probable cause and the good faith exception didn’t apply. A federal search warrant, however, was valid. United States v. Tyson, 2025 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 6604 (E.D. Va. Jan. 13, 2025).* (A long convoluted case about computer search warrant and lack of probable cause.).

The car defendant was in was suspected of recent car burglaries, and that was reason for the stop. United States v. Williams, 2025 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 5932 (N.D. Tex. Jan. 13, 2025).*
