221332P.pdf   07/27/2023  United States  v.  Melroy Johnson, Sr.
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  22-1332
   U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Iowa - Western   
[PUBLISHED] [Kelly, Author, with Loken and Shepherd, Circuit Judges] Criminal case - Criminal law and Sentencing. While the search warrant affidavit failed to include information that was relevant to determining probable cause, the officer who drafted it did not act intentionally or with reckless disregard for the truth in drafting the affidavit, and defendant was not entitled to suppression under Franks; even if the warrant application was insufficient to establish probable cause, the good-faith exception to the exclusionary rule applies to the case; because the description of defendant's residence was sufficiently particular and there was no reasonable probability of a mistaken search, the typographical error in the warrant's condition precedent does not require the evidence seized to be suppressed; the evidence was sufficient to support defendant's conviction for conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine and his conviction for possession of the drug with intent to distribute; the district court did not err in denying defendant's motion for a new trial based on newly discovered evidence as there was no reasonable probability that the result would have been any different with the new material; the district court did not err in calculating the drug quantity for purposes of sentencing.
