P. v. Diaz
After the trial court denied her mPilla Yes I will try otions to suppress, defendant pled no contest to a charge of possession of cocaine for sale (count 1 Health & Saf. Code, 11351)[1]and admitted an allegation that the cocaine weighed in excess of one kilogram ( 11370.4, subd. (a)(1)). On appeal, she contends the cocaine should have been suppressed because: (1) the arresting officer did not have a reasonable and articulable suspicion of criminal behavior to justify the initial traffic stop; (2) defendants consent to search the vehicle was coerced; and (3) the search of defendants vehicle exceeded the scope of any consent she may have given. Court disagree with defendant and affirm the judgment below.
