1Opinion of the CourtLemire, J.
*103 After an evidentiary hearing, a judge of the Superior Court allowed the defendant's *191 motion to suppress evidence found in his bedroom during a routine parole home visit. The judge found that the parole officer lacked reasonable suspicion to enter the bedroom, and that the entry could not be justified as a protective sweep. After receiving leave from a single justice of the Supreme *104 Judicial Court, see Mass. R. Crim. P. 15 (a) (2), as amended, 476 Mass. 1501 (2017), the Commonwealth brings this interlocutory appeal challenging the order. We affirm.
