Summarized by Rankin Johnson, OCDLA

SEARCH AND SEIZURE - Particularity requirement for search warrants

Warrant permitting search of cell phone failed to specify the data to be sought with sufficient particularity to guide an executing officer. Reversed and remanded.

The warrant sought a variety of data on the phone "related to controlled substance offenses." The search revealed text messages suggestive of defendant's drug use and trafficking. The court explained that, because cell-phone searches have tremendous possible scope, the information sought must be specified in the warrant. The court distinguished a prior decision upholding a search for child pornography, reasoning that an electronic search for child pornography has an obvious objective, but an electronic search for evidence of drug offenses does not.

MENTAL STATES - Conduct and circumstance elements

The victim's lack of consent is a circumstance element of second-degree sexual abuse, and thus in order to be guilty defendant must be, at a minimum, criminally negligent with respect to that element. Affirmed.

Aoyagi, J., concurring, believed that disposition was required by prior cases, some from the Supreme Court, which had been incorrectly decided.
