The trial court\u2019s findings of consent to the search was clearly supported by the record. Defendant was unhandcuffed and sitting in the police car during the search.

Defendant did not show how his failure to testify at the suppression hearing would have changed anything in light of the video, not that IAC claims can be raised on direct appeal anyway. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ca7.uscourts.gov\/tmp\/GM0E1FL4.pdf\">United States v.
