Frankly, I could care less whether the court decided in favor of the State or defendant. This certainly attempts to decide some legal argument, but I don’t believe it’s “law.” Law is worthless, IMHO, unless it is clear enough that citizens and the cops can understand what is or is not prohibited-the citizen can then obey the law and the cops can enforce it-and prosecutor can advise based upon it. I know these cases are fact dependent but an articulable standard would be nice, no matter what the standard is.
