United States Sixth Circuit


US v. PINSON, 01-6133

An affidavit provided sufficient facts for a finding of probable cause for a search, though it lacked the name or a description of the person from whom a confidential informant purchased drugs. Time that elapsed between announcement and entry satisfied the reasonableness requirement of the Fourth Amendment.
