Question 15

The investigating officer in the fatal shooting sought a search warrant to search Jamie's cell phone for any evidence related to the crimes of unlawful possession of firearms or possession of narcotics with intent to deliver, including: Stored phone contact numbers All call history logs PAll text messages PAll photographs All videos All chat logs PAll voicemail messages In support of the request for the search warrant, the investigating officer submitted a declaration alleging: I am the current Gang Information Officer for the Brenton Policy Department and a member of the South Brenton County Violent Gang Initiative Task Force. I have served in those roles since 2015. 1 previously was employed by the Department of Defense as a detective where I investigated gangs. I have attended and instructed gang training since 2002 for a total of over 500 hours. I have interviewed over 400 gang members and identified over 100 gang members residing in Brenton over the last seven years. Based on my training and experience, I know that it is common for gang members to take pictures of themselves where they pose with firearms. Gang members also take pictures of themselves prior to and after they have committed gang related crimes. Criminals also often text each other or their buyers photographs of the drugs intended to be sold. Gang members will often take pictures of themselves or fellow gang members with their cell phones which show them using drugs. I believe there is evidence of gang affiliation contained within the cell phone because the shooting was gang involved
