Consent Search Residence

Tampa Criminal Defense Attorney has been researching  Search and seizure in a Residence under Florida Law in State Court when there are allegations of Consent. Recently, a judge granted motion to suppress evidence. The evidence was collected in defendant's residence after consent to search the residence was coerced. The Court decided consent was obtained after an unreasonable display of police force.  A reasonable person would believe that he had no choice but to acquiesce to the officer's request to enter.
