How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- concluding that police conduct was not serious, distinctly egregious misconduct that might justify granting the defendant the right (under the “target standing” theory) to challenge the allegedly unlawful search
- “In the circumstances of one continuous event, it does not matter whether the victim’s death preceded or followed the sexual attack”
- “the suppression of a witness’s testimony is relief well beyond the suppression of physical evidence and calls for a level of suppression that we are not inclined to recognize”
- findings are left undisturbed absent clear error
