US v. Roach, No. 08-3029

Defendant's drug and firearm possession convictions are affirmed where: 1) although a warrant to search defendant's girlfriend's residence lacked probable cause, the officers relied on and executed the warrant in good faith; and 2) the district court failed in its duty to make factual findings regarding the reliability of a detective's expert testimony, but the error was harmless.
