United States v. Eric Davison

Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit

Decided December 8, 2015No. 15-1292PublishedCited by 12 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

LOKEN, Circuit Judge.

Kansas City, Missouri, Police Officer Chad Pickens discovered a loaded firearm during a stop and frisk of Eric Davison. Charged with being a felon in possession of a firearm, Davison conditionally pleaded guilty and now appeals the denial of his motion to suppress. He argues police violated his Fourth Amendment rights in seizing the firearm because Officer Pick-ens lacked reasonable suspicion to make an investigative stop and to conduct a protective frisk for weapons. We affirm.

I. Background.
