The search yielded a stash of marijuana, and the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said warrantless inventory searches of impounded automobiles are an exception to the Fourth Amendment. The court said such searches protect property in police custody, protect po- lice against claims of loss and protectpolice and the public from potential danger. A Highway Pa- trol trooper stopped a man in De- cember 1996 in West Valley City for an equipment violation. The trooper subsequently arrested the man for driving while intoxicated and called two other officers to impound the truck. Under UHP policy, impounded vehicles are inventoried. After taking the truck to an impoundyard,troopers realized they had not invento- ried the bed. Officers checked a suitcase in the back of the truck SS and found marijuana bundles inside. The man,wholater pleaded guilty to possession of marijuana, challenged the search,claiming it was done mainlyfor investigative purposes. The appeals court ruled the truck was taken to an unsecured impound yard in a high- crime area andofficers were responsible for the suitcase andits contents. “While mixed motives writing contest — the movie has missals because “Two Family House” was the heartfelt saga of his wistful Uncle Bud, a figure who had loomed large in DeFelit- “Everybody wears dark movie making was a surprise.
