In this session, attendees will learn how to use motions to suppress and suppression hearings as part of an overall challenge to faulty and misleading forensic evidence. Attendees will also learn how to develop the information learned through suppression hearings for further use in pre-trial motions and at trial. The speaker will discuss finding the right experts, working collaboratively with those experts, and strategies for direct and cross-examination of experts at suppression hearings.
9:00 Break
9:15 If at First You Don’t Succeed, Get Another Warrant: Strategies for Challenging Successive Search Warrants
Sara Werboff, Office of Public Defense Services
Can the state just get another warrant when it messes up the first? The answer, of course, is complicated. This presentation will address this state tactic and provide strategies for suppressing the fruits of successive warrant searches.
10:15 When Google Searches for You: Challenging Geofence Warrants
Michael Price, NACDL, 4th Amendment Center Litigation Director
In 2020, Google received over 11,000 geofence requests from law enforcement agencies across the country, a dramatic increase from just 941 requests in 2018. Geofence searches create a virtual perimeter around an area, allowing law enforcement officers to access critical location information of individuals in that area. They are digital dragnets involving the location data of millions, raising deep concerns over Fourth Amendment and privacy protections. This training will cover the mechanics of geofence warrants and present strategies for defense lawyers to challenge their constitutionality
11:15 “ ‘Suppress It All’: Useful Developments in Oregon’s Exclusionary Rule”
Mark J. Kimbrell, Office of Public Defense Services
The presentation will review useful foundational principles, emphasizing ways in which Article I, section 9’s burdens and presumptions can be used to suppress as much evidence as possible. It will then dive into recent caselaw on Article I, section 9’s exclusionary rule, as well as potential arguments grounded in those cases.
