   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  04-2724
   District of South Dakota   
   Criminal case - criminal law. District court erred in suppressing 
   evidence obtained after an officer of the Rosebud Sioux Tribal Police 
   entered defendant's home without a warrant; evidence was admissible 
   because exigent circumstances justified the officer's entry and because 
   defendant committed a new and distinct crime after the officer entered the 
   home.
