Supreme Court of Delaware

A conviction and sentence on drug-related charges is affirmed over a claim that the superior court erroneously denied a motion to suppress evidence derived from a police officer's allegedly illegal search of defendant's residence, as the emergency doctrine exception to the Fourth Amendment justified the officers' broad search of the home.
