Long"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>On reconsideration, motion to suppress is granted. The officer lacked justification for the stop, and, once the vehicle was stopped, there was no justification for a vehicle frisk under <em>Michigan v. Long<\/em>. United States v. Herrera, 2006 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 77089 (N.D. Cal. October 13, 2006):<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>In the case at bar, the evidence is similarly deficient. There is no evidence that Mr. Herrera exhibited any signs of drug use, behaved in a manner suggestive of drug use, or was nervous or evasive. Nor was there evidence that this particular location was a known drug spot. The only evidence supporting a likelihood that contraband would be found was that Mr. Herrera appeared to be illegally parked in a handicap space late in the evening in the Presidio, made some movement towards the center console upon Officer Campbell&#8217;s approach, and had white residue on his pants. While this evidence suffices to establish reasonable suspicion, it does not establish a &#8220;fair probability that contraband or evidence of a crime will be found&#8221; necessary to constitute probable cause.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Console of truck was within defendant&#8217;s reach at time of arrest for purposes of search incident. United States v. Lopez, 2006 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 77469 (D. Minn. September 11, 2006).*<\/p>\n<p>Vehicle stop was not unduly prolonged to conduct a dog sniff.  Defendant refused consent, and the officer was running his name through the state computer system and ran a dog around the car while waiting. The detention was not unreasonable. United States v. Kennedy, 2006 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 77571 (S.D. Ga. September 20, 2006).*<\/p>\n<p>Videotape showed that defendant\u2019s consent was valid and equivocal.  United States v. Simmons, 202 Fed. Appx. 82 (6th Cir. October 24, 2006)* (unpublished).<\/p>\n<p>Officers approached a car outside a known drug house for suspicious activities, and they asked the driver to open a hand he had balled into a fist.  The driver opened his hand and out fell a baggie of crack.  Furtive movements in the car were reasonable suspicion.  United States v. Davis, 2006 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 77576 (N.D. Ohio October 25, 2006).*<\/p>\n<p>The use of an electronic tracking device on a vehicle in a public place was not prohibited by the Fourth Amendment. United States v. Kurt, 2006 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 77385 (E.D. Wash. October 24, 2006).*<\/p>\n<p>Search warrant for premises for gambling proceeds led to a request for consent to search defendant for cash, and consent was voluntary.
