Indeed, \u2018double-check\u2019 implies that \u2018everything is okay,\u2019 but \u2018let’s make sure.\u2019 In the realm of Fourth Amendment analysis, and on this record (i.e., aside from fitting the description of the suspects, there was nothing suspicious about the defendants, they were compliant, and it was not a consensual encounter) \u2018double-check\u2019 and \u2018let’s make sure\u2019 equate to an impermissibly prolonged stop.\u201d State v.
