182393P.pdf   06/25/2019  United States  v.  Kalil Dunn
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  18-2393
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - St. Paul   
[PUBLISHED] [Shepherd, Author, with Erickson and Kobes, Circuit Judges] Criminal case - Criminal law and sentencing. Police officers followed the city's policy allowing the police to tow and impound a vehicle that is impeding traffic when the owner cannot immediately remove the vehicle on his own, and the inventory search performed prior to the impound was reasonable and valid; in a separate incident, drugs seen in plain view on a car's dashboard provided officers with probable cause to conduct the search of defendant's vehicle; the district court did not err in finding credible the testimony of the officer who spotted the drugs; bottom-of-the-guidelines range sentence was not substantively unreasonable; the district court acknowledged defendant's mitigating circumstances and did not err in determining they were outweighed by other 3553(a) factors.
