In the case of People of the State of Illinois v. B.R., at preliminary hearing on June 22nd in Branch 50, the Court found “no probable cause” and the case was dimissed.  The allegation was that the defendant, a passenger in another’s vehicle, was responsible for the drugs which were found in the door pocket on the front passenger side of the vehicle.  The officer had attributed a statement to the defendant wherein the defendant allegedly admitted ownership of the drugs.  On cross-exmination, the officer conceded that he did not see the defendant store the drugs in the vehicle and that he did not know who owned the vehicle.  Adam Sheppard further cross-examined the officer about the circumstances under which the defendant made his alleged statement claiming ownership of the drugs.  Following cross-examination, the judge found “no probable cause” and the case was dismissed.
