Description
The Itasca County District Court placed William Arthur Anderson on probation after he pleaded guilty to felony burglary in 1995. Five years later, the court discharged Anderson from probation and ordered that his felony conviction be deemed a misdemeanor under Minn. Stat. § 609.13, subd. 1 (2006). Anderson was later convicted of another felony and again placed on probation. Four months after sentencing, he signed a probation agreement requiring him to permit warrantless, suspicionless searches of his person and property. Approximately six months later, Andersons probation officer received a tip that Anderson had guns at his residence and as a result, the probation officer conducted a warrantless search of Andersons residence and seized two guns. Anderson was subsequently charged with being a felon in possession of a firearm. Anderson pleaded not guilty and moved the district court to suppress the guns as products of an unconstitutional search. The district court denied the motion, and a jury found Anderson guilty as charged. The court then sentenced Anderson to 60 months in prison.
