I find that an indictment does not constitute probable cause to issue a search warrant. The Seventh Circuit has not addressed this question. It said nothing about whether the informants made first-hand observations, or about whether law enforcement officials independently verified any of their claims about firearms. I review the recommendation de novo. Attempted Murder Charges Filed Against 6 Members of Latin King Gang See United States v. Harris,403 U.S. 573, 584, 91 S. Ct. 2075, 29 L. Ed. in Supp. 8. (Id. GREENSBORO, NCThirteen alleged members of the Almighty Latin King and Queen Nation (Latin Kings) have been indicted by a federal grand jury in . He acknowledged that the plastic box could not hide a person. In the upper story, which was a partially converted attic, Sergeant Harpole and FBI Special Agent Zorka Marinovich observed a pile of clothing strewn about. Gonzales laid out the picture of a well-oiled outfit that operated under a hierarchy, met every week, collected dues, recruited from all races and demanded loyalty. Trevino, 23, was beaten, then shot in the leg, stabbed and ultimately strangled to death by fellow gang members, according to court records and police reports. Tello and Hill were among forty-nine Milwaukee-area Latin Kings indicted in September 2005 on charges of racketeering, racketeering conspiracy, narcotics trafficking and conspiracy, and unlawful possession and distribution of firearms.

It's unclear what the fight was about at the gas station that night in April 2003, but Toms landed the first punch, nailing Barragan in the face, according to the documents. Nonetheless, a black plastic container of such dimensions could easily hold dozens or hundreds of items other than a gun, and so its dimensions and material *926 are not of an immediately apparent incriminating nature. Disclosing only the fact of indictment is not a substitute for providing the magistrate judge with sufficient facts to form his or her own conclusions necessary to a determination of probable cause. According to the Supreme Court, an officer with sufficient probable cause to obtain a search warrant is "foolish" not to get a search warrant, because he risks suppression of all evidence; the government must assume the "onerous burden of convincing a trial court that no information gained from the illegal [search] affected either the law enforcement officers' decision to seek a warrant or the magistrate's decision to grant it." The listing of categories of crimes that Latin King members had allegedly committed thus did not provide the magistrate judge with probable cause to believe that evidence was located in the place to be searched or that the evidence sought would aid in the prosecution of a particular offense.
