The principal issue presented in this case is: Can a defendant, who ordinarily, as a mere passenger, lacks standing to contest the validity of a search of a car, seek suppression of guns recovered in a search which followed an arbitrary stop of the car by the police, based on less than reasonable suspicion?
I hold that he can; accordingly, suppression is granted as to all of the defendants.
