Court of Appeals of Indiana
Leon Casillas v. State of Indiana
21A-CR-2182
Criminal. Affirms Leon Casillas’ convictions of Level 2 felony dealing in a narcotic drug and Level 6 felony possession of methamphetamine, and the finding that he is a habitual offender. Finds Casillas did not waive his objection to the evidence police discovered after they entered his home. Also finds the Vanderburgh Circuit Court did not err in admitting the evidence found inside Casillas’ house because the facts and circumstances presented to the trial court support its finding that Casillas freely and voluntarily consented to the officers’ entry into his home.
