In what circumstances will a rifle be found in a bag at a police station?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Lagrange, D065065 (Cal. App. 2014):
As we have noted there was testimony, which was believed by the trial court, that the bag in this case would have inevitably been opened and the contents examined at the police station during an established inventory process. Thus, as was the case in Nix v. Williams, supra, 467 U.S. at pages 445 to 446, the rifle found in the bag was admissible as against a claim of a Fourth Amendment violation.
