Virginia Supreme Court hears appeal in case over police use of GPS tracking

RICHMOND, Va. — A lawyer for a sex offender asked the Virginia Supreme Court to reverse his client’s conviction, arguing that evidence in the case was inadmissible because police illegally used an electronic tracking device to monitor the man’s movements without first obtaining a search warrant.

Christopher Leibig told the court Thursday that the Virginia Court of Appeals wrongly upheld David Foltz’s conviction in Fairfax County in 2008 of abduction with intent to defile.

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled this January that police cannot install GPS technology to track suspects without a warrant.

Thanks for screwing the tax payer on this Sharon

Under the reign of former Chief of Police Rhorer the Fairfax County Police arrested a man for not wearing clothes in his house while he made coffee, set up an eye doctor on a gambling charge and then used the SWAT team to kill him. An investigation into the charge that the Doctor’s primary clients were cops has never been investigated. The police gunned down an emotionally unstable man because cop who shot him wrongly assumed the man was trying to escape. He wasn’t. The cops also shot dead four other citizens under highly questionable circumstances. The department under Rhorer was sued multiple times by citizens. So did they fire Rhorer? Naw they promoted him. According to news reports Rhorer draws a salary of $191,168 per year as Deputy Fairfax County Executive as well as a concurrent pension from the Fairfax County police of $173000 per year.
