State v. Norfolk
Annotate this CaseAfter a bench trial, Elton Norfolk was found guilty of one count of unlawfully carrying a concealed weapon and one count of possession of marijuana. Norfolk appealed, arguing that the circuit court clearly erred in overruling his motion to suppress evidence and his objections to the admission of evidence seized because the police officer lacked reasonable suspicion to stop him and check for a weapon. The Supreme Court affirmed the judgment of the circuit court, holding that Forfolk's Fourth Amendment rights were not violated, the evidence seized was properly admitted, and there was sufficient evidence to support the convictions.
