Arrest and Search by police based invalid arrest warrant does not suppress drugs & gun found

Arrest and Search by police based invalid arrest warrant does not suppress drugs & gun found
HERRING v. UNITED STATES __ S. Ct. ___ No. 07–513.  Decided January 14, 2009
When police mistakes leading to an unlawful search are the result of isolated negligence attenuated from the search, rather than systemic error or reckless disregard of constitutional requirements, the exclusionary rule does not apply.
