The People of the State of Colorado v. Lynette Webb

Summary

The court held that police lawfully searched Webb's purse under a warrant authorizing the search of the residence and all personal property within it for methamphetamine and paraphernalia. Because the purse was in an unlocked bedroom accessible to Webb's son and was a container in which contraband could reasonably have been hidden, the search fell within the warrant's scope. The court reversed the suppression order and remanded for further proceedings.
