• 2021 Ohio 1740

Syllabus

The trial court did not err when it overruled appellant's motion to suppress. The record established that the police officer had a reasonable articulable suspicion to stop the vehicle in which appellant was a passenger because of a window tint violation and speeding. The trial court did not err when it found that the police had probable cause to perform a warrantless search of the entire vehicle, including the trunk and its contents. The appellant did not receive ineffective assistance of counsel when his trial counsel failed to specifically challenge the warrantless search of the trunk in a memorandum filed after the suppression hearing. Judgment affirmed.
