Again I repeat what I stated in In re Winkle (1964), 372 Mich 292, 294-325, and in People v. Blessing (1966), 378 Mich 51, *62156-67; namely, that Mapp v. Ohio (1961), 367 US 643 (81 S Ct 1684, 6 L Ed 2d 1081, 84 ALR2d 933), is not controlling, and hold that the trial court and Court of Appeals* should be affirmed.
