Three uniformed police officers after viewing a video showing Bill burglarizing a local coin shop, obtained an arrest warrant for Bill. Late in the afternoon, the uniformed Police knocked on Bill’s door. A woman answered the door and identified herself as Bill’s wife and confirmed she lived at the house. The police asked for Bill, and she stated Bill was at work.  Police asked if they could come in and wait for Bill.  The wife answered, “sure” and she stepped aside and made a motion with her hand to the seats in the living room.   Bill arrived and entered the living room where the police were waiting, and Bill was placed in handcuffs and arrested.  Police asked Bill if they could “look around.” Bill said, “No” Police patted down Bill and found an illegal gun in his pants pocket. They looked around the living room where the arrest was made and on the television found three coins marked with the coin dealer’s business sales tags.  The police then searched the main upstairs bedroom and found 5 more dealer marked coins. Assume No Search Warrant was issued. There was a pre-trial motion to suppress and exclude the evidence found. Was the police entry lawful? Is Bill’s Arrest Valid? Should the gun found on Bill and the three coins found on the television in the living room be excluded? Should the five coins found in the upstairs bedroom be excluded?

Within minutes after hearing gunshots from the neighboring house belonging to Nancy, Randy called the police. When the police arrived, two officers entered the unlocked front door with guns drawn. They observed a man lying on the floor. The victim had been shot in the stomach and was unconscious. While one officer called an ambulance, the other began to search Nancy’s house, looking for the gunman. When the officer opened a closet door in the master bedroom, he observed several small bags containing a white substance. Based on experience and training, the officer had probable cause to believe the contents were cocaine. The officer seized the bags. The officer then entered the kitchen and noticed the back door was open. He observed a gun on the ground a few feet from the doorstep. Subsequent investigation revealed that the gunshot victim was Nancy’s cousin, and that the bags did indeed contain cocaine. Nancy was charged with unlawful possession of cocaine. Nancy filed a motion to suppress the evidence, claiming that the officers’ entry and subsequent search were unlawful. Should the court grant Nancy’s motion?
