United States Sixth Circuit

In an appeal arising from a district court's denial of a defendant's motion to suppress evidence seized pursuant to a warrant, the circuit court rules that a suspect's ostensibly admitting to having engaged in child molestation is not sufficient, without more, to establish probable cause to search that suspect's home for child pornography.
