It’s going to be hilarious to see this entire case fall apart just because the cops were idiots cutting corners everywhere… with stars in their eyes thinking about who they thought they were arresting.
I hope so, I personally I am really not anticipating the judge throwing out the evidence.
It depends on the order of events really. If they illegally searched his bag before arresting him, and something they found in the bag was the impetus for the arrest… It should be thrown out. Evidence has been thrown out for less.
If he was already under arrest, searching belongings is normal and expected.
Sure. But it was the other way. Searched his bag and then arrested him. And then broke the chain of custody during transport. They say they found a gun, and an hour later a cop shows up at the station with the murder weapon and says this is the one we found on him.
No argument that it should be, I just seriously doubt it will be regardless of the evidence. Pessimistic of me I know, but gestures broadly at everything
they are just stringing this along to show the “rich” they are actually doing something about it.
