• holding that a continued unlawful detention after a lawful traffic stop resulting in a consent to search was an exploitation of a prior illegality in violation of Article I, section 9
• reasonable suspicion requires that an officer subjectively believe that a person has committed a crime and that the belief be objectively reasonable in light of the totality of the circumstances
• “The fact that defendant had past involvement with drugs does not give rise to a reasonable suspicion that he possessed drugs at the time of the * * * stop * * *.”
• admissions made by the defendant that led to the discovery of incriminating evidence were obtained by questioning that included references to information that the police had learned during an illegal search of the defendant’s person and, thus, were the product of exploitation
• extension of traffic stop was unlawful because police lacked reasonable suspicion of drug possession: “The fact that defendant had past involvement with drugs does not give rise to a reasonable suspicion that he possessed drugs at the time of the traffic stop [.]”
