OR: 20 year old information would be stale, but for officer's experience about pedophiles keeping it put in the affidavit

When coupled with the recitation of the officer’s experience that pedophiles keep their materials for many years gets it over the bar. State v. Daniels, 2010 Ore. App. LEXIS 295 (March 31, 2010). Questions about keys that defendant had on his bicycle unreasonably extended the stop and made his consent invalid. State v. Klein, 2010 Ore. App. LEXIS 287 (March 31, 2010).* Officers had probable cause for defendant’s search, so defense counsel would not be ineffective for not moving to suppress. In the interest of T. M., 2010 Ga. App. LEXIS 351 (April 1, 2010).*
