The following excerpt is from People v. Cohen, F070273 (Cal. App. 2016):
(Davis v. United States (2011) 564 U.S. 229, 232 [131 S.Ct. 2419, 2423-2424] ["Because suppression would do nothing to deter police misconduct in these circumstances, and because it would come at a high cost to both the truth and the public safety, we hold that searches conducted in objectively reasonable reliance on binding appellate precedent are not subject to the exclusionary rule."].)
