AFFIDAVIT IN SUPPORT OF WARRANT FOR A DNA SWAB INSUFFICIENT, MOTION TO SUPPRESS SHOULD HAVE BEEN GRANTED (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department, reversing defendant’s conviction, determined the affidavit submitted in support of a warrant application for a DNA swab was insufficient and the motion to suppress should have been granted:

To establish probable cause, a search warrant application must provide sufficient information to support a reasonable belief that evidence of a crime may be found in a certain place'”… . Here, as the People correctly concede, the affidavit of the detective submitted in support of the search warrant application was conclusory and insufficient to establish probable cause to issue the warrant … . The detective stated that he believed evidence related to the victim’s murder may be found in the defendant’s saliva based on his interview of witnesses, information supplied to him by fellow police officers, and his review of police department records. However, the detective did not identify the witnesses or indicate what information he obtained from them, and did not specify what police department records he reviewed, or what information was contained in the records. People v Augustus, 2018 NY Slip Op 05480, Second Dept 7-25-18
