Commonwealth v. Bryant

By JUDGE ROBERT K. WOLTZ

The issue presented is the suppression of evidence based on the defendant’s claim that two warrant searches and one warrantless search were invalid. The first warrant was for search and seizure of certain bedclothing and the nightclothes of the alleged victim of certain sexual offenses charged against the defendant. The second warrant was for a sample of blood and for pubic hair from the body of the defendant. The warrantless search relates to recovery of a sawed-off-shotgun from the defendant’s motor vehicle. Suppression of the evidence is denied except as to the hair.
