Here, the drug sales by Defendant to Daffner and later to the undercover officer (including the sale that was basis of Count 2), as well as the execution of the search warrant and the arrest of Defendant \u2018completes the story\u2019 and provides a \u2018total picture of the charged fentanyl distribution.\u201d United States v.

\u201cNotably, however, Ezeani did not explain what allegedly \u2018criminal falsified material\u2019 was used to effectuate the arrest and seizure of his passports. \u2026 Although Ezeani asserted that the immigration officers possessed guns and arrived at his home early in the morning, nothing in his description of the manner in which the seizure was carried out suggested that it was unreasonable. He merely pointed to the Record of Deportable\/Inadmissible Alien, which indicated that he gave consent for the officers to enter his home, where he was arrested for being in violation of the Immigration and Nationality Act. [\u00b6] In sum, because Ezeani did not plead facially plausible facts demonstrating the unreasonableness of the seizure, the District Court properly dismissed his amended complaint. We further conclude that providing Ezeani with further leave to amend his complaint would have been futile.\u201d (Pro se plaintiff) Ezeani v. Jimenez, 2024 U.S. App. LEXIS 30561 (3d Cir.
