Search and Seizure – consent — coercion

Edward J. Warrior appeals a judgment of conviction entered upon his guilty pleas to two counts of armed robbery. He contends that the circuit court should have suppressed the evidence that police officers found when they entered his home because, he claims, police coerced his family’s consent to the entry by making false statements. We conclude that Warrior forfeited his claim by failing to raise it in the circuit court. We affirm. This opinion will not be published.
