Ynosencio v. State

The appellant, Manuel Jesus Ynosencio, appeals his conviction for trafficking in cannabis, § 13A-12-213(a)(1), Code of Alabama 1975. Ynosencio was sentenced to a term of 10 years' imprisonment, plus an additional 5 years' pursuant to §13A-12-231(13), Code of Alabama 1975, because there was a handgun in his vehicle during the commission of the offense. Ynosencio challenges the constitutionality of his initial stop at an interstate roadblock, the subsequent warrantless search of a locked toolbox in his truck, and the trial court's enhancement of his sentence under § 13A-12-231(13).
