WI Court of Appeals – District II

Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Robert Torres

Case No.: 2016AP1061-CR

Officials: Neubauer, C.J., Gundrum and Hagedorn, JJ.

Focus: Motion to Suppress Evidence

Robert Torres appeals from his judgment of conviction and the denial of his motion to suppress evidence obtained following law enforcement officers’ warrantless entry into his residence. He asserts the entry was unlawful and all evidence flowing from it must be suppressed. Because we conclude the entry was justified by the existence of probable cause and exigent circumstances, we disagree and affirm.
