   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  22-3247
   U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Iowa - Cedar Rapids   
   [PUBLISHED] [Colloton, Author, with Wollman and Gruender, Circuit Judges] 
   Criminal case - Criminal law. The search of defendant's house was 
   permissible without a warrant because the police officers reasonably 
   relied on the apparent authority of defendant's stepfather to consent to 
   the search; once inside the residence, the officers were entitled to seize 
   items (Molotov cocktails and other explosive materials) whose 
   incriminating character was immediately apparent.
