Officer Joe enters the home of Danny Defendant before the warrant was signed by a magistrate. Upon entering the home, Officer Joe sees a kilo of cocaine, and seizes it, even though the entry of the home was illegal (i.e. no warrant and no exigent situation). Five minutes later, Officer Mary walks in with the signed warrant. A motion to suppress the kilo of cocaine is filed by Danny Defendant's lawyer. Even though Officer Joe clearly entered the home illegally (i.e. which would render any search to be a violation of the Fourth Amendment), the judge rules against Danny Defendant. Why is the kilo of cocaine admissible?
