Is a prior stop, where consent was given by the driver to search her possessions, and marijuana was found, probable cause for future searches during traffic violation stops, or warrants for searches of the home of either the passenger or the vehicle owner?
I was the passenger in a vehicle traveling from Colorado to Virginia, the driver saw signs for a drug checkpoint (which she was unaware was fake, as drug checkpoints have been ruled to be unconstitutional) and panicked, quickly exiting the highway. When exiting, she failed to signal twice and was pulled over. Knowing full well she has drugs in the car, she lied to the officers of the DTF and the consented to a search. I, a minor in the vehicle at the time, received no citation, and the driver received a warning. Is this interaction probable cause for my vehicle (the minor) to be searched for drugs during a future traffic stop? Or possibly for the police to show up at my home with a search warrant based on the stop. I made no admission of guilt and was not cited, however my ID was held for the duration of the stop and I a sure my name is in the report. My freshmen year of high school I allegedly stole more the 250.00 of merchandise from Walmart with a friend, and was given a ticket for marijuana possession under one ounce. (It is decriminalized in my home state). The court granted a countinuance without a finding, and no admission of guilt was given.
Any information is greatly appreciated
