  1. United States v. Patton

    962 F.3d 972 (7th Cir. 2020)   Cited 3 times   1 Legal Analyses

    Fed. R. Crim. P. 41(d)(2)(C). Illinois lacks such a requirement, see Chicago v. Adams , 67 Ill. 2d 429, 10 Ill.Dec. 533, 367 N.E.2d 1299 (1977), and the informant's statements were not recorded or transcribed. After hearing evidence on Patton's motion to suppress, the federal judge concluded that the informant had testified under oath but that almost nothing else could be pinned down: the informant did not appear in federal court, and Mings had a sketchy memory of what had been said before the state judge.
