United States Eighth Circuit
US v. SANTOS-GARCIA, 01-3941, 02-1583
Under the circumstances, consent to search of a vehicle following a traffic stop was voluntary, and the district court did not err in denying a motion to suppress evidence and statements. Evidence was sufficient to support drug convictions, and there was no error in imposing an obstruction-of-justice enhancement.
