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

concluding that \the very limited intrusion into Jenkins' clothing was clearly outweighed by the need for law enforcement to retrieve the contraband before it could be discarded or destroyed\
holding that absent constitutional violation, where the strip search statute did not expressly authorize suppression as a remedy, suppression was not a remedy
observing that “Jenkins was wearing baggy blue jeans with a low-hanging waist, and this allowed Bonollo to see that Jenkins was wearing boxer type shorts as an undergarment”
noting that statute at issue did not expressly list the exclusionary rule as a remedy and, therefore, we do not infer that this remedy is available for violations of the statute
refusing to apply any exclusionary rule where text of applicable statute did not fairly support such a remedy
applying the Bell factors to conclude that “the very limited intrusion into [the defendant’s] clothing was clearly outweighed by the need for law enforcement to retrieve the contraband before it could be discarded or destroyed”
