Thus, &#8220;[a]lthough material omissions are not immune from inquiry under Franks &#8230; an affidavit which omits potentially exculpatory information is less likely to present a question of impermissible official conduct than one which affirmative includes false information.&#8221; United States v.

Martin, 920 F.2d 393, 398 (6th Cir. 1990)). &#8220;This is so because an allegation of omission &#8216;potentially opens officers to endless conjecture about investigative leads, fragments of information, or other matter that might, if included, have redounded to defendant&#8217;s benefit.'&#8221; Id.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Omission of exculpatory information is far less likely to be a Franks issue because (1) it doesn\u2019t often matter and (2) it would lead to endless forays into what is exculpatory.
