Description
Opinion OF THE COURT BY JUSTICE WINTERSHEIMER This appeal is from a decision of the Court of Appeals which reversed a judgment based on a jury verdict which convicted Walker of trafficking in a controlled substance, possession of a controlled substance and cultivating marijuana. He was sentenced to concurrent terms of eight and five years on the cocaine charges and a consecutive term of five years and a $5,000 fine on the cultivation of marijuana charge. The issues presented are whether the search warrant was defective; whether there was probable cause for the issuance of a search warrant; whether there was sufficient evidence to support a finding that Walker was guilty of trafficking and whether the evidence at trial violated Walker's Fifth Amendment rights.
