U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 09-3934
U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - St. Louis
[PUBLISHED] [Benton, Author, with Loken and Hansen, Circuit
Judges]
Criminal case - criminal law. Facts available to the police would justify
a person of reasonable caution in the belief that defendant's spouse had
authority to consent to search of the gun safe where the weapons in
question were found; where officers obtain valid third-party consent,
they are not required to seek consent from the defendant.
