State v. Perrone

Washington Supreme Court

1Opinion of the CourtBrachtenbach, J.

In this case involving prosecution for possession of child pornography, we uphold the trial court's ruling that a search warrant for defendant's residence is overly broad in its entirety. We reverse the Court of Appeals.

Defendant was charged with one count of dealing in depictions of minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct, RCW 9.68A.050(2), and one count of possession of depictions of minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct, RCW 9.68A.070. The charges were based on evidence seized from defendant's condominium pursuant to a search warrant, the validity of which is at issue here.
