    What a terrible decision. That’s like saying if you have a house key they can search your house.

      There’s a reason they keep you focused on the first two amendments. Don’t want you realizing how comfortable they are with unregulated search and seizure.

      Honestly idk how the civil forfeiture can possibly be considered constitutional

      they did in fact use the data seized from his phone to find his house, then took his key and searched it

      His attorney probably should have raised that objection in the first place. He should have objected based on the phone not being material to the search of the car. But if he didn’t raise the objection correctly during the initial trial, then he can’t raise the objection on the appeal either.
