Officer Jumpthegun has been investigating a string of credit card burglaries. While at a local supermarket she overhears another shopper say to his companion that "my neighbor Ralph Rabbit has been spending money like it's going out of style." Jumpthegun concludes that Rabbit must be the burglar she is seeking and she applies for a warrant to search Rabbit's home, setting forth the conversation she heard in the supermarket as her probable cause showing. Magistrate Rubberstamp quickly reviews the application and issues the warrant, which, when executed by Jumpthegun, turns up evidence connecting Rabbit to the burglaries. On the defendant's motion to suppress on the grounds that the warrant was defective, the prosecution concedes that probable cause to search was lacking but contends nonetheless that Jumpthegun acted in good faith and thus the Leon exception should apply. What result?
