171455P.pdf   05/31/2018  United States  v.  Nalenzer Edwards
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  17-1455
   U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri - Jefferson City   
   [PUBLISHED] [Colloton, Author, with Gruender, Circuit Judge, and Reade, 
   District Judge] 
   Criminal case - Criminal law. Information provided by a confidential 
   informant, together with corroborating evidence gathered during the 
   investigation, established probable cause to believe defendant committed a 
   drug trafficking offense and that evidence of the offense was contained in 
   his vehicle; evidence seized in the search, as well as defendant's 
   incriminating statements, held admissible; drug dog's failure to alert on 
   the car was relevant to the probable cause determination, but was not 
   determinative; police may consider other, pre-existing information in 
   making the objective determination as to whether there is a fair 
   probability that evidence of the crime is in the vehicle.
