Description
Appellant's first assignment of error is directed to the overruling of her objections to evidence concerning the merchandise found in the trunk of her car. Prior to admitting this evidence, the trial court conducted a voir dire examination of the police officer who searched the car. On the basis of competent evidence, the court found that defendant gave the officer permission to search her car, including its trunk, and that this permission was granted after defendant had been fully advised of and understood her rights. That she gave the officer only the ignition key and professed not to have the key to the car's trunk in her possession did not, as appellant now seems to contend, compel a finding that the permission to search extended only to the body and did not include the trunk of the car. The officer obtained access to the trunk through the rear seat, and the search having been made with defendant's permission, her objections to the evidence obtained as a result of the search were properly overruled.
