How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- holding that reasonable articulable suspicion was established when a motorist made evasive moves immediately after seeing a trooper's vehicle
- holding that reasonable articulable suspicion was established when a motorist made evasive moves immediately after seeing a trooper’s vehicle
- holding even “innocent activity might justify the suspicion of criminal activity”
- finding vehicle lawfully stopped when a trooper inferred driver was trying to evade him after he observed the motorist make eye contact with him and immediately turn onto a side road and then reemerge
- “While defendant’s behavior may have been consistent with innocent behavior, it also reasonably caused the officer to suspect that defendant was deliberately trying to evade him.”
- “The suspicion that the officer must be able to articulate must be more than an unarticulated ‘hunch;’ the officer must be able to point to something that objectively supports his suspicion.”
