The police gave chase to defendant, and he ran down an alley and threw his backpack over a wall into somebody else\u2019s backyard. \u201cIn the present case, we assume without deciding that Mr. Kyle retained a subjective expectation of privacy in the backpack. We hold that throwing the backpack over a fence into someone else’s backyard while fleeing from the police precluded Mr. Kyle from retaining an objectively reasonable expectation of privacy in the backpack. We note that Mr. Kyle does not dispute that his action in throwing the backpack over the fence was voluntary for purposes of this case.\u201d Importantly, it wasn\u2019t his backyard (suggesting that would change the result).

There was no misleading statement in the affidavit for warrant. The controlled buy was off \u201cD,\u201d and defendant and \u201cD\u201d had the same phone number. That was a reasonable inference. The falsity that the CI said he saw the drugs three weeks earlier ended up in the affidavit as 96 hours earlier. That was negligent at worst. No Franks violation. United States v.
