State of Arizona, Appellee v. Bradley Harold Wilson, Appellant

Summary

The court held that the community caretaking exception to the warrant requirement does not extend to warrantless searches of homes. Because the State did not seek review of the rulings rejecting exigent circumstances and emergency aid, the court assumed those exceptions did not apply and reversed the order denying suppression. The court affirmed specified portions of the court of appeals' opinion, ordered that opinion depublished, and remanded for further proceedings.
