STATEMENT OF THE CASE

Petitioner was convicted of murdering his wife and
sentenoed to 15 years imprisonment. Cir. Ct. Record..
A significant’ piece of evidence.against him was material
obtained by police officers by scraping under his nails .
(Tr 311). which material was later identified as skin
cells, blood cells and white cotton fibre - 335) and
admitted in eyidence against him: (Tr 344). |

This scraping was done without a warrant while peti-
tioner was not under arrest but was being detained, and ~
was done over ‘his objection upon legal advice by his
attorney who was present. : :

A pre-trial motion to suspress this evidence for viola- ;
tion of the Fourth Amendment to:the United States
Constitution was filed’in the trial court ‘(Appendix p.
20) and evidence.taken thereon (Tr 28-74), at the con-
clusion of which the trial court denied the motion to
suppress (Appendix p. 21). At the time of offering the
material in evidence upon the trial, the pre-trial motion
was preserved (Appendix p. 22): . .

The lawfulness of this search and seizure under the
United States Constitution was presented to and de- -
termined on the merits by the Court of Appeals of the
State of Oregon adversely to petitioner (Appendix p.
11) and the Supreme Court of Oregon denied the. peti-
.tion requesting its discretionary review of the deter-—
mination of the Court of Appeals (Appellate Record,
-Appendix p. 26).

FACTS ON MOTION TO SUPPRESS .
On August. 25th, 1967, city of' Portland d hecthies

| Prescott Hutchens and William Prunk were ‘a signed

to investigate the murder of Doris Murphy. They ar-
rived at the Murphy home shortly after 8:00 A.M. (Tr
98). Visually they could see throat lacerations and
abrasions and it appeared that she was strangled (Tr
29, 35 and 54). Deceased was lying on her back in bed
and the bed was perfectly made up. There were no signs
of robbery (Tr 35). The detectives talked to the son of
the deceased and defendant and learned that defendant
- had been expected home the night’ before on the 24th
of August (Tr 45, 47): Also by calling Camp Sherman
and talking there to a Mark Jones they learned that
defendant had left there the night before to go to Port-
land (Tr 46).

-. Inaddi didn they hoticed that Pat Murphy, dhe son, —
. bit his fingernails and it was impossible to scrape ‘them
. 41).”

nguncement is made because the officer knows that.
the person will not actually be taken to the station -
unless the search proves to be fruitful. That is, in

~_ those Gases where the defendant might be arrested

because of reasonable grounds to-believe-he_pres~ ~~ i
sently possesses contraband, the common sense se- | _
quence—as far as the police are concerned—is search

followed by arrest. only if contraband is found; as

opposed to arrest, search, and then release if nothing

is found. ~ '

“Tn these and wae cases, the better view is that:
the search is not unlawful merely because it. pre-
. cedes the arrest. Such is the California eae,
- which has been explained as follows:

_ “*Thus, if the officer is entitled to make an ar-
rest on the basis of information availahle to him be- |
‘fore he searches, and as an incident to that arrest is

entitled to make a reasonable search of the’ person
_ arrested and the place where he is arrested, there is:

, nothing unreasonable in his conduct if he makes the

search before instéad of after the arrest. In fact, if.
the pearson searched is innocent and the search con-
vinees the officer that his reasonable belief to the.
contrary is erroneous, it is to the advantage of the
_pearson searched ‘not to be arrested. On the other |
hand, if he is not innocent or the search doés not
establish his innocence, the security of. his person,
house, papers, or effects suffers no more from a search .
preceding: his arrest ‘than it would from’ the same

. search following it.’ 4°

The majority of the Oregon Supreme Court appar-
ently is of the same mind as the California court in
People v. Simon, 45 Cal 2d 645, 290 P2d 531 (1955). In
State v. Elk, 249 Or 614, 439 P2d 1011 (1968)., those who
concurred in the prevailing opinion characterized as in- |
cident to arrest a car search which occurred 20 to 25 °
minutes prior to arrest and 200 to 250 yards away. The
search was upheld on the basis of a more realistic, work-
able and theoretically sound rationale in‘two concurring
opinions which represented the views of four concurring .
justices. While the two concurring opinions were not in
complete agreement on all of the issues of that case they
shated ‘the same view on the issue we are here consider-
ing. The view upon which the four concurring ‘justices
agreed is set forth in that portion of Mr. Justice O’Con-
nell’s opinion which states: ‘ : | ;

“The majority opinion upholds the search in the
present case on the ground that it was incident to
the arrest. This is erroneous. A search and seizure
cannot be an ‘incident’ of an arrest which took place
at a later time. It is not made any the more so by
assertions that ‘the. arrest and search were part of
one uninterrupted transaction’ or that the search
is ‘not remote in time or place from the site of the
arrest.’ | . ae

_ “However, the search and seizure in-the present

case can be upheld upon another ground. The infor-

mation Officér Rothermel had _ received, : together
with his observations before lifting the trunk lid, was .
sufficient to give him probable cause to believe that
the stolen gun was in the trunk. Upon the basis. of
this information, there would have been no difficulty
in obtaining a search warrant. But to obtain a war-
rant it would have been necessary for Rothermel to
leave the car and if he left it he could not know when

17

_ the person who drove the car there would return and
drive it away together with the evidence in it. Roth-

* ermel had been informed that those who had driven -
up in the car were in the immediate vicinity. Because
of the risk of losing the evidence if a warrant were

' sought, it was impracticable to obtain a warrant. Un-
der these circumstances a search of the trunk was
reasonable.” State v. Elk, supra, at 624-25.

“If the police had probable cause to search the defen-
dant and probable cause to believe that it was necessary
that they search him without taking the time to first ob-
tain a search warrant, their right to search him immedi-
ately was hot deféated by the'r failure to exercise their
right to arrest him. “There is no constitutional right to
be arrested,” Hoffa v. United States, 385 US 293, 87 S Ct.
408, 17 L Ed 2d 374, reh den 386 US 940 (1966). To hold
otherwise would be to require the police to arrest so as
to search incident to that arrest. The court should not ,
_ require greater invasion of privacy where lesser invasion
would satisfy the public purpose. Situations: exist where
arrest would be unwise despite the circumstances of
_ probable cause. Cf. Hoffa v. United States, supra. While
the existence of probable cause authorizes state seizure
by way of (1)- arrest, and (2) search to prevent destruc-
tion of evidence (see State v. Chinn, supra, at 267),
there appears no reason to require the police to do both
or neither. If the public safety is satisfied by the Jesserin- ~
vasion of defendant’s privacy, by search alone, the law
should not encourage, or indeed require, the police to
arrest prematurely. in order to justify a search already
Justified by prior probable. cause. 3

We hold that the right of the police’to search without
a warrant 1s a right not solely dependent upon a prior
or contemporaneous arrest. The relevant issue is not

18

whether the defend pint was arrested, but whether the
warrantless search.was based on probable cause. The
questions basic to this determination are:

(1) Did the police have probable cause to believe
that a search of the defendant’s person would result
in the finding of evidence of homicide?

(2) Did‘the police have probable cause to believe
that if the search were not made immediately with-
out taking the time to seek and obtain a warrant the
evidence might well be lost?

“&

Sta State v. Keith, Or App, — Or Adv Sh —, — Or —, —
—, handed down by this court March 5, 1970.

The facts in the case at hand justified the warrantless
search. At the time the police took the fingernail scrap-
ings they had probable cause to believe that the uefen-
dant was guilty of strangling his wife. They did not have
evidence beyond a reasonable doubt, but: they did have
what they needed, i.e., reasonable ground for suspicion
supported by circumstances sufficiently strong in them-
selves to warrant a cautious man in the belief. State v.
‘Keith, supra.

One of the detectives who had had previous experience _
‘in this type of homicide knew that throat lacerations
" were frequently produced by fingernails and that evi-
dence in the form of blood, skin and fibers could some-
times be found under the fingernails of assailants in such
cases. At the time tie detectives took the acragangs they
knew:

The bedroom in which the wife was found dead

* showed no signs of disturbance, which fact tended to

_ indicate a killer known to the victim but rather than
to a burglar or other stranger.

19

The decedent’s son, the only other person in the.
house that night, did not have fingernails which
could have made the lacerations observed oni the vic-
tim’s throat. ve

The defendant and his deceased wife hadh.had a
stormy marriage and did not get along well:

_ The defendant had, in fact, been at his home on
the night of the murder. He left and drove back to
- central Oregon claiming that he did-not enter the
house or see his wife. He volunteered a great deal of
information without being asked, yet expressed no’
concern or curiosity about his wife’s fate. - ;

Unless the defendant were bound, manacled, guarded

or by some other means placed in a position where he

could not clip his fingernails, scrape the nails of one

hand with the nails of another, put his fingers in his ©

mouth or go to the lavatory from the time the police

.asked him for permission.to take fingernail scrapings

until the time that they sought and obtained a warrant, ©
it was entirely likely that the evidence would have been
destroyed in the. interim. Proper application of the
Fourth Amendment does not require such extremes. The

search ci the defendant did not violate his constitutional

rights t8 freedom from unreasonable search and seizure.

by and through his attorney of record, Gordon M.

ing and excluding the evidence obtained as a result of
' the illegal search and seizure of defendant’s person for

the following reasons, one or more than one concurring,
to-wit: Jarl > ;, | i

1) That the officer effecting the search of the defen-

dant’s person failed to secure a search warrant author-

izing the search of the defendant’s person. .

2) At the time of the search of defendant’s person,
he was not under arrest for any crime, nor did he. give
his consent for any search.

3) That in fact the defendant, by and through his —
attorney, made a plain and unequivocal objection to the
said’search, but that the seaich was conducted over
these objections, by members of the Portland Police
Bureau. ai ; ite ete

4), That the search. of the defendant was conducted
through the mode and means of inserting a knife blade
underneath defendant’s fingernails and obtaining there-
from certain items of fingernail scrapings which said

items of fingernail scrapings were later turned over to. -

- In argument for. the instant motion, attorney for de-.-
fendant will rely, in part, upon the following points of
authority. :

U. S. Constitution, Amendment IV:
. Oregon Constitution, Article ee
State v. Krogness, 238 Or 135.

ORDER OF CIRCUIT COURT ON MOTION TO SUPPRESS

- THE COURT: Before we proceed further with this
trial, as I indicated to you yesterday, I would take this
motion, defendant’s motion, under submission. And I 4
have studied it and tonsidered the argument and testi-
, mony presented by respective counsel on your motion,
Mr. MacLaren, to suppress, and feel that the motion
‘should not be allowed. — 3

- Now, I will agree with you that the scraping of the ©
defendant’s fingernails, as far as this Court is concerned,
for evidence, was a search within the meaning of. the
search and seizure law. Of course, that leaves the cru-.
cial question of whether or not the search was a-reason-
able and valid one. . aa le

You will recall that yesterday I indicated that I felt
quite strongly that probable cause existed, in this case,
for the search. And, add to that, since you finished argu- _
ing yesterday; I further feel that, and I think I indi-
cated, the exigencies of-the situation, or the circum-

a.

stances, including the purpose of the search, the manner
‘in which ‘it was made, the character of the evidence
seized, and the nature and importance ‘of the crime com-

. mitted, all add to the reasonableness of the search. |

And I further feel that State versus Ramon, cited to
the Court by the District Attorney ‘yesterday, 85. Ad-
vance Sheets 375, support my finding. And you will re-
call in that case the Court said that: . cae

“It is not answer to say that the police could have
obtained a search warrant for the relevant test is not
whether it is reasonable to procure a search warrant,

but whether the search was réasonable.”

| And, for these reasons, the Court is hereby denying
the motion. So we'll proceed with the trial. All right

APPELLANTS OPENING BRIEF
_ QUESTIONS PRESENTED IN COURT OF APPEALS ©

| (1) Is a search of one’s person by law enforcement |

authorities made without consent, without search war-
_ rant and not incident to lawful arrest a violation of the
Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the
United States and of Article I, $9, Oregon Constitution.

(2) . May law enforcement authorities effect a search.
of a suspect to murder for evidence connecting him to
_ the crime solely on a basis of “probable cause” without
arrest or search warrant or by his consent. -

(3) Under the circumstances present in the instant
