   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  08-2824
   U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Davenport   
   [PUBLISHED] [Gruender, Author, with Bye, Circuit Judge, and Kays,
   District Judge]
   Criminal case - criminal law. District court did not clearly err in
   finding that the totality of the circumstances demonstrated that the
   officer conducting the search of defendant's car reasonably believed
   defendant had voluntarily consented to the search of his person and
   vehicle; considering all of the factors set out in Brown v. Illinois,
   422 U.S. 590 (1975), the district court did not err in finding that
   defendant's voluntary consent to the searches purged the taint of any
   Fourth Amendment violation arising from the traffic stop. Judge Bye,
   dissenting on the issue of whether the consent purged the taint of
   Fourth Amendment violation.
