P. v. Dominguez
An officer was dispatched to a supermarket parking lot where she met with a mother and daughter who reported an assault by three other women. The officer watched a surveillance video of a portion of the assault. The officer obtained an address for a suspect, Alicia Dominguez, and went to her home. While talking to two men who answered the door, the officer recognized Dominguez by her clothes, which were the same ones as in the surveillance video. The officer asked Dominguez several times to step outside. When she did not, the officer entered her home and arrested her without a warrant. Once outside her home, Dominguez made incriminating statements.[1] After the court denied her motion to suppress, she pled no contest to one count of assault likely to produce great bodily injury. On appeal, she challenges the court’s denial of her motion. We affirm.
