Outrageous blatant lie told by police to coerce defendant into signing this "consent to search". (Go to 2:04)
3. People v. Jones
Prosecutor kept using the same word in his opening and managed to inflame the passions and prejudice of the jury. Retrial ordered. (Go to 3:33)

Defendant attempts a "Point Break" type police escape. He manages to totally destroy an apartment, scare the hell out a lady and her kids, and - oh yea - get caught. (Go to 13:17 )
