United States v. Stanley, No. 10-50206 (9th Cir. 2011)
Annotate this CaseDefendant conditionally pleaded guilty pursuant to Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 11(a)(2) to one count of possession of child pornography. Defendant appealed the denial of his motion to suppress the offending material located during a search of his computer, a search conducted by federal agents pursuant to the alleged consent of his one-time friend and now fiancee. The court held that the totality of the facts and circumstances known to the federal agent at issue at the time of the search satisfied the test in Illinois v. Rodriquez and therefore, the federal agents were justified in relying on the fiancee's consent.
