United States Seventh Circuit


US v. Etchin, 09-1079

Convictions and sentences of defendants for crack cocaine related offenses are affirmed where: 1) officers' warrantless entry violated the Fourth Amendment, but the evidence was admissible as the link between the initial entry and the later discovered evidence was sufficiently attenuated to dissipate the taint of the illegal search; and 2) there is no error in the sentences imposed.s
