Syllabus

The trial court did not err by failing to suppress firearms and methamphetamine found in a locked safe by probation officers during a probationer search. The search in question was authorized under R.C. 2951.02(A)(1)(a), which is a valid statute that meets the Fourth Amendment's reasonableness requirement. Accordingly, the search of the safe was reasonable under the Fourth Amendment, and suppression of the evidence found therein was not required. Judgment affirmed.
