People v. Confidential 196

The Chicago Police pulled over Mr. J’s vehicle for a traffic violation.  Then they claimed to have seen open alcohol. And then they said they were given permission to search Mr. J’s trunk where they found a gun. At trial Attorney Levinsohn had the passenger testify and he said that after the police pulled the car over they searched the trunk without permission and that is where the alcohol and gun were located. The judge ruled that it was an illegal search. Case dismissed.
