In Illinois v Caballes, the court sustained a warrantless sniff which turned up contraband.
The contrabandito was a mexican, so the drug exception applied.
This was a case where I never got around to filing an amicus based on terror caused by attack dogs.
one of a million things you never get around to
had the plaintiff bothered to rely on the illinois constitution, he might have won
but he ducked the issue
