A gun and drugs were in plain view. During a protective sweep, a gun and cell phone were found in defendant\u2019s room. They weren\u2019t seized exactly then, but shortly later, and that was not unreasonable. With four people in the place, the police needed to sort out who was responsible for what, and it was certainly less intrusive to question them there rather than take them all in to the station house. They called in names and a separate warrant came back for defendant. \u201cDrug trafficking is plainly a serious crime, one often accompanied by violence &#8230;. There was a clear need for the Officers to remain in the apartment long enough to ensure, inter alia, that persons engaged in drug trafficking were not released.\u201d <a href=\"http:\/\/halite2.uscourts.gov\/decisions\/isysquery\/ffa2d8c8-b6a8-4f21-8613-34da4932b22c\/3\/doc\/15-683comb_opn.pdf#xml=http:\/\/www.ca2.uscourts.gov\/decisions\/isysquery\/ffa2d8c8-b6a8-4f21-8613-34da4932b22c\/3\/hilite\/\">United States v.
