I was indicted by the state not by the feds 13 months after the search of the house .the charge was a manufacture charge which is a F-2 and Illegal assembly or possession of chemicals for the manufacture of drugs which is a F-3. I have hired a good trial lawyer, but have spent a great deal of time trying to learn what it takes to get a search warrant, and what it takes to surpress a search warrant. I see a serious hole in probable cause because there where only 2 things used to get the search warrant. One, which was hearsay, and a bag of trash that contained miscellaneous precursors, that was not in my trashcans where I put my normal household trash and it had no document’s that implicated myself or the house that was searched. We are filing a motion to surpress the warrant.
I feel I have a very good Attorney but I am one of those people that when I don’t under stand something I want to try and do as much research as possible to try and understand the system. I was just looking for some more opinions from people that are in the business and maybe some suggestions about other things that can be used in a motion to surpress a search warrant. From what I have read this falls under the 4th amendment. But I can only find a cases in Oregon, Florida and New Hampshire. Where judges have ruled in favor to surpress a warrant when trash is involved.
Thank you for you time
