Is consent obtained by police officers obtained through subterfuge and fraud?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Mann v. Superior Court, 3 Cal.3d 1, 472 P.2d 468, 88 Cal.Rptr. 380 (Cal. 1970):

Finally, petitioners contend that the officers obtained their consent to enter by subterfuge and fraud, and that the consent was therefore invalid. (People v. Reeves (1964) 61 Cal.2d 268, 38 Cal.Rptr. 1, 391 P.2d 393.) There is no merit in this contention.
