U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 12-1353
U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Des Moines
[PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with Murphy, Circuit Judge, and
Jackson, District Judge]
Criminal case - Criminal law. Finding that police officers could
reasonably conclude that the tenant voluntarily consented to their going
upstairs in her residence was not clearly erroneous; even if she did not
give consent, the officers did not violate the Fourth Amendment by going
upstairs to look for defendant as the officers had a reasonable belief,
based on her comments, that defendant was present in that portion of the
residence.
