  State of Texas vs. James York Brown (Police sergeant James Brown was indicted for capital murder, aggravated kidnapping
  aggravated sexual assault. The alleged criminal acts were supposedly committed in connection to a satanic cult which practiced ritualistic murders
  cannibalism. The State, represented by a special prosecutor
  two "satanic cult experts" sought the death penalty against Sgt. Brown. The case was dismissed prior to trial. The case was also featured as a two-hour special on Dateline NBC, MSNBC Cover to Cover as well as other national television programs)
  United States of America vs. Reginald Rausse (Mr. Rausse was traveling through East Texas by Amtrak train when he was detained by task force officers working a narcotics interdiction on the train. A subsequent consensual pat-down resulted in the discovery of more than a pound of cocaine concealed on his body. After a lengthy suppression hearing in Federal Court, the Judge issued a 52-page order suppressing the evidence. The Government was then forced to dismiss Mr. Rausse's charges)
  United States of America vs. Larry Underwood (Mr. Underwood was stopped on U.S. Hwy 59 in Panola County, Texas northbound from Houston, Texas by a Texas Department of Public Safety trooper. Mr. Underwood consented to a search of his trunk. After one hour of searching the vehicle, the DPS trooper discovered 20 kilograms of cocaine in a hidden compartment in the car's bumper. Mr. Underwood was arrested
  his vehicle seized. The Court held a hearing on a motion to suppress filed by David E. Moore. At the conclusion of the evidence, the Court found that Mr. Underwood had been illegally detained, invalidating his "consent." The Government, with their evidence suppressed, dismissed the charges against Mr. Underwood
  returned his vehicle
  State of Texas vs. Heraclio Vasquez (Mr. Vasquez, an illegal immigrant, was detained on a Greyhound bus in Cass County, Texas by a narcotics task force officer. Mr. Vasquez spoke no English
  the female narcotics officer did not speak Spanish. The officer ultimately searched Mr. Vasquez
  his luggage. She located a pound of cocaine. After a suppression hearing, the District Court found that due to the language barrier, the "consent" to search would not have been voluntary
  suppressed the evidence. The charges against Mr. Vasquez were dismissed).
