Johnson v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal
Johnson v. State, 632 So. 2d 712 (1994)
1994 Fla. App. LEXIS 1829; 1994 WL 63308
Cobb, Dauksch, Griffin
Johnson v. State
Opinion of the Court
AFFIRMED.
Dissenting Opinion
dissenting.
Because the trial judge did not find the traffic stop to be pretextual it is very difficult for me to so determine. But it is obvious that the only reason the drug enforcement deputies stopped the car was to search the ear. I’ve viewed the deputies’ own videotapes of the incident to reach my decision that this was an unconstitutional intrusion upon the liberties of the appellant and his 'codefendants. I would order the evidence suppressed. The judgment has a typographical error and the court improperly assessed “100FDLE” and “$15 drug and alcohol” costs. For these additional reasons I would reverse.
