In reviewing a trial court's ruling on a motion to suppress, we defer to the trial court's factual findings if supported by substantial evidence; we exercise independent judgment to determine whether, on the facts so found, the search or seizure was reasonable. (People v. Glaser (1995) 11 Cal.4th 354, 362.)
