How courts have described this case

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

holding that because the police could have independently, through their normal course of investigation, obtained a separate warrant for one suspect's records, a defective affidavit as to another defendant did not require suppression of his records
noting that the defense counsel's failure to make timely objections indicated no perceived prejudice
inserting additional evidence into the affidavit of probable cause to determine whether the affidavit established probable cause
noting evidence obtained in violation of the warrant requirement \is excluded so as not to reward misconduct and to provide an incentive for adherence to constitutional mandates\
applying the independent source rule to affirm denial of motion to suppress evidence obtained as the result of a warrant flawed because the supporting affidavit's omissions rendered it inaccurate
distinguishing, in the context of a search warrant affidavit, the omission of details that would undermine a finding of probable cause from affirmative misstatements for purposes of a flagrant misconduct analysis
