How later courts describe this case

  • defendant abducted from Bahamas on narcotic charges, the court declined to adopt the Toscanino exception but even if applicable, found no evidence of conduct which shocked the conscience
  • search of locked suitcase valid as incident to arrest because within defendant's reach
  • “If a defendant personally hires only the foreman, that defendant is still responsible for organizing the individuals hired by the foreman to work as the crew. We find that mere delegation of authority does not detract from the defendant’s ultimate status as organizer.”
