California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Gallup, 253 Cal.App.2d 922, 61 Cal.Rptr. 709 (Cal. App. 1967):
Neither Schaumloffel nor Mills involved a search which was, in part at least, motivated by a desire to find evidence [253 Cal.App.2d 928] material to the crime for which the arrest is made. (Cf. People v. Ghimenti, 232 Cal.App.2d 76, 42 Cal.Rptr. 504.)
