Description
KANNE, Circuit Judge On the morning of January 25, 1989, officers of the Milwaukee County Sheriff's Department, armed with a search warrant, made an unannounced entry into the private residence of James Paul Singer. The search which followed uncovered 3.2 kilograms of methamphetamine. As a result of this discovery, Singer was charged with conspiring to manufacture and distribute amphetamine and methamphetamine, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 846, and possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1). Before trial, Singer moved to suppress the physical evidence seized by the police during the search of his house, as well as any statements he made to law enforcement officials following the search, on the grounds that the search had violated his state and federal constitutional rights. Specifically, he maintained that the failure of the Milwaukee County Sheriff's Department officers to knock on his door and announce their presence and purpose before entering his home infringed his fourth amendment right to be free from unreasonable searches and seizures. The district court granted his motion to suppress, 727 F. Supp. 1281, and the government now appeals the ruling pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3731.
