Description

Defendant appeals his conviction for possession with intent to distribute cocaine. Defendant claims (1) the stop of his vehicle was constitutionally impermissible; (2) his subsequent consent was not voluntary and was an exploitation of the prior impermissible stop and detention; and (3) the drug evidence must be suppressed as fruit of the poisonous tree. We reverse because the search that led to the cocaine was the product of an illegal stop and because defendant's consent to search his motel room was tainted by the illegal stop.
