1. A defendant being charged for possession of a controlled substance in the first circuit. In this matter, the police acted on an anonymous and unconfirmed tip that a defendant was in possession of a controlled substance by going to his residence and asking to search his apartment. The defendant denied the request, grabbed his coat and left the residence. As the police were leaving another person walked out of the residence and informed them he was the defendant's roommate. The police asked this person for permission to search the apartment. The roommate agreed to the search and the police found a controlled substance. The prosecutor is concerned about the validity of the search, he thinks there is Supreme Court case law on the issue. Write a short memorandum about the applicable case law and validity of the search.

He admits he was not wearing his seatbelt. Does the police officer's true motivation (individual bias) for the stop subject the evidence to a motion to suppress (assume Rhode Island law)?
