Issue:
- Whether the motion judge abused her discretion by denying defendant’s request to renew the motion to suppress?
Discussions:
Defendant challenged the pretrial denial of his motion to suppress, contending that the motion judge improperly applied the doctrine of inevitable discovery and abused her discretion by denying defendant’s request to renew the motion to suppress. Defendant argued that the officer who stopped his vehicle lacked jurisdictional authority to stop him in another town and that the substantial incriminating evidence resulting from the stop should have been inadmissible because neither statutory nor common-law sources permitted an extraterritorially stop under the circumstances. The appellate court found no error, noting that defendant at excessive speed drove into an oncoming lane and forced the first police cruiser to drive off the road in order to avoid a head-on collision. The officer began pursuit and directed his dispatcher to inform a neighboring town of the chase and need for assistance. The officer forced defendant to pull over after a short chase and took defendant’s keys and driver’s license. As he did so, the officer from the neighboring town, where the stop occurred, took over. Those facts established the practical certainty of discovery of defendant by the second officer.
