Wedemeyer finds the lower court properly convicted defendant of assault, kidnapping, possession with intent to sell or deliver heroin, four counts of possession with the intent to sell or deliver four different scheduled drugs, and possession of drug paraphernalia. Police were called to respond to a possible domestic disturbance at a motel. The room in which defendant had been staying was the subject of the call and subsequent search where a variety of drugs and paraphernalia were discovered; and evidence of assault against defendant’s girlfriend was also observed. Though defendant argues search of the motel room and cell phones was not proper, the lower court found no error with the searches and the instant court agrees. Evidence is sufficient to support defendant’s convictions and effective sentence to 14-years incarceration. Affirmed.
