Description
In People v. Hakel, No. 90CA1966 (Colo. App. Nov. 17, 1992) (not selected for official publication), the court of appeals reversed judgments of conviction on three counts of possession of cocaine,*fn1 two counts of distribution of cocaine,*fn2 two counts of conspiracy to distribute cocaine,*fn3 possession of cocaine with intent to distribute,*fn4 possession of more than twenty-eight grams of cocaine with intent to distribute (a sentence enhancer),*fn5 and being a special offender (a sentence enhancer)*fn6 entered against the respondent, Robert Joseph Hakel. The court of appeals held that the trial court erred in denying Hakel's motion to suppress evidence seized at his residence pursuant to a search warrant. The court of appeals concluded that the affidavit submitted in support of the request for the issuance of the warrant did not establish probable cause to believe that evidence of the illicit transactions was located at Hakel's residence. Having granted certiorari to review the propriety of the court of appeals' Conclusion, we reverse and remand the case with directions to reinstate the judgments of conviction.
