Idaho v. Danney
Annotate this Case
Defendant Filip Danney appealed a district court’s denial of his motion to suppress evidence of drugs obtained through the use of a drug dog during a traffic stop. On appeal, Defendant argued that the district court erred in determining that: (1) a proper foundation was laid for the admission of Global Positioning System (GPS) data used in his prosecution; (2) reasonable suspicion existed to justify the warrantless extension of his traffic stop; and (3) the government’s placement of a GPS device constituted an impermissible warrantless search. Because the Supreme Court agreed that the officer had a reasonable articulable suspicion of possible criminal activity justifying the limited detention of Defendant for purposes of a drug dog search, the Court affirmed the district court's decision.
