Are Inventory Searches Dead? State v. Sanders Breakdown
The New Mexico Court of Appeals significantly restricted the inventory exception in the recent case of State v. Sanders, NO. A-1-CA-40287.

In this episode of the podcast I breakdown the case and discuss some other related topics.

Outstanding
Phenomenal podcast and resource for cops. Pertinent info passed in easy to digest language. Highly recommended!
Excellent Podcast
I just finished listening to all of Erik’s podcasts to date. They are truly excellent. He explains things in a clear, easily understood manner. I especially enjoyed his courtroom testimony tips and his explanation of the difference between consensual encounters and seizures. His podcasts are a must for law enforcement.
