Wisconsin Court of Appeals
Criminal
Criminal Procedure – warrantless search
Dennis V. Markov appeals from a judgment of conviction for two counts of first-degree intentional homicide entered upon his guilty pleas following the trial court’s denial of his suppression motion. Markov argues that the trial court erred in denying his motion to suppress the fruits of police officers’ warrantless search of his home. We conclude that the search was justified under the community caretaker exception to the warrant requirement and affirm. This opinion will not be published.
