Anita Jane Triplett appeals from the judgment of conviction entered after her plea of guilty to possession of a controlled substance (lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD)) in violation of Health and Safety Code section 11377, subdivision (a). Her plea of guilty followed the denial of her motion to suppress evidence. (Pen. Code, § 1538.5.) She contends that her constitutional rights 1 were violated because there was no probable cause (a) to take her into custody pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code section 5150, or (b) to search her purse.
