Forsyth v. Brown

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding that evidence was insufficient to establish that juvenile’s unprovoked flight from officer occurred in a high crime area, and thus officer did not have reasonable suspicion to conduct an investigatory stop
• holding that officers lacked reasonable articulable suspicion to stop defendant where defendant ran after two officers drove up beside her in an area where there had been “multiple narcotic complaints” over “some unknown” period of time
• invalidating stop where D.R. was walking down street; officers drove alongside; D.R. fled; and there was inadequate evidence that stop occurred in “high crime area”
• police officer’s vague and unsubstantiated statement that a neighborhood was a known high crime or narcotics area was insufficient to establish that it was a high crime area
• inadequate evidence that stop occurred in high-crime area where officer testified that he had not worked in area “for awhile” but that “there’s multiple narcotics complaints that go out there”
