Rodolfo Rivero Garcia, Jr. v. United States
Whether the stop of Mr. Garcia's vehicle was supported by reasonable suspicion of illegal activity where the only factors present were: (1) the stop occurred between 50 and 100 miles from the border, (2) there was recent illegal activity in the area, (3) the officers' experience with drug cases, (4) "alerts" which purportedly attached the vehicle to smuggling, and (5) the fact Mr. Garcia "tapped his brakes and reduced his speed" when he saw that an official law enforcement vehicle had pulled up beside him as he traveled down the highway, in violation of the Fourth Amendment of the United States Constitution.
