1:50 1. Is carrying a concealed knife or box cutter legal in California? Does the length of blade matter? 1:50 https://youtu.be/fzbfePRmpyQ

A] morally blameless person carrying a concealed box cutter for innocent purposes, such as a grocery store worker, carpenter or car mechanic, cannot be convicted of violating Penal Code section 21310. Defendant was convicted of violating section 21310 because he inflicted a deep, bloody wound on the victim and yelled at the victim as he sat slumped against a wall that defendant would kill him (and the eyewitness, too), leaving the victim in hysterical fear of death. This defendant was not morally blameless, and our holding does not invite prosecutors to prosecute morally blameless people.

4:50 2. Part 1: Introduction to Conspiracy Law. Multi-part series exploring criminal conspiracy cases. https://youtu.be/NwN_FQa1j-E

This is the first video in a multi-part series on criminal conspiracy law. In the next dozen videos, I will dive deeper into conspiracy law and discuss relevant cases in detail. 

Generally speaking, a conspiracy has three elements. 1. Agreement between two or more persons to commit an unlawful act; 2. Knowledge of the agreement and voluntary participation; and 3. Overt act. 

6:00 3. Impermissibly prolonged traffic stop in violation of 4th Amendment. Drugs found in car - suppressed https://youtu.be/S1SqtpTv-c8

In Rodriguez v. United States, 575 U.S. 348 (2015), the Supreme Court explained that an officer’s authority to seize the occupants of a vehicle ends when “tasks tied to the traffic infraction are—or reasonably should have been—completed.” Id. at 354. 

8:42 4. Pretextual inventory search conducted as a ruse for a criminal investigation. People v. Torres 2010 https://youtu.be/FDYF6uQlhZ4

The decision to impound the vehicle must be justified by a community caretaking function "other than suspicion of evidence of criminal activity" ( Bertine, supra, 479 U.S. at p. 375) because inventory searches are "conducted in the absence of probable cause" ( Whren, supra, 517 U.S. at p. 811). "
