1Opinion of the Court
WIEAND, Judge:
During an investigation into the suspicious death of the wife of Charles Bagley, police obtained and executed twelve search warrants. After Bagley had been arrested and charged with criminal homicide, he moved to suppress evidence seized pursuant to the execution of eight such warrants.
