U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 18-3109
U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri - Kansas City
[PUBLISHED] [Kobes, Author, with Smith, Chief Judge, and Kelly, Circuit
Judge]
Criminal case - Criminal law. While the officer did not have a reasonable
suspicion to detain defendant based on his observations of defendant's
actions, the evidence discovered on defendant's person after the officer
learned of an outstanding arrest was admissible; the initial violation of
defendant's Fourth Amendment rights was sufficiently unrelated to the
ultimate discovery of the evidence and suppression would be inappropriate
under the attenuation doctrine.
