U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 08-2647
District of Nebraska - Omaha
[PUBLISHED] [Shepherd, Author, with Colloton and Bright, Circuit Judges]
Criminal case - criminal law. Seizure of defendant's bag from a bus
cargo bay, without reasonable suspicion, violated defendant's Fourth
Amendment rights, and the district court did not err in suppressing the
evidence; even if defendant voluntarily consented to the subsequent
search of his wallet, evidence found in the wallet was fruit of the
poisonous tree and was properly suppressed.
