1. “"A preliminary examination, like the inquiry made by a magistrate before issuing an arrest or search warrant, is concerned with probabilities—not guilt. Hearsay statements in an affidavit may be relied upon in issuing a search or arrest warrant so long as the affidavit includes sufficient affirmative allegations of fact as to the affiant's personal knowledge to allow the magistrate to rationally reach an independent decision. State v. Marks, 231 Kan. 645, 647 , 647 P.2d 1292 (1982). We conclude that a similar rule is still appropriate for preliminary examinations." 8 Kan. App.2d at 702 , 666 P.2d 1200 .”
