“The degree of proof necessary to establish probable cause for the issuance of a search warrant is more than a suspicion or possibility but less than a certainty of proof.”
3 later decisions quote this exact passagee.g. State v. Vest · State v. Williamson“Probable cause to issue the warrant requires a factual showing that, at the time of the application for the warrant, evidence relating to the commission of a crime exists on the premises sought to be searched. Thus, information which is `stale' will not support a finding of probable cause.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passagee.g. State v. Vest · State v. Granville“Thus, the magistrate must have sufficient facts upon which to conclude that there is a reasonable probability that evidence of a crime will be found in the place to be searched.”
