Search and Seizure — warrantless searches – consent — scope

Kenneth Anthony Wright appeals a judgment convicting him after a guilty plea of possession of cocaine with intent to deliver, as a second or subsequent offense. Wright argues that the police violated his Fourth Amendment rights during a traffic stop because they acted outside the scope of the traffic stop when they asked for permission to search him. He also contends that the police went beyond the scope of his consent when they searched him. We affirm. This opinion will not be published.
