Description
Based upon an informants tip and suspicious activities observed at John Pools residence, officers obtained a search warrant and found methamphetamine and items used in the manufacture of methamphetamine. Pool was arrested and filed a motion to suppress the evidence alleging that an illegal warrantless search provided the basis for the search warrant. Pools motion was denied, and he pleaded guilty, subject to the appeal of his motion. Because the officers engaged in an improper warrantless search, and because the affidavit for the search warrant does not establish probable cause once the facts gained from the warrantless search are omitted, we reverse.
