Johnson v. State
Facts:
Defendant
appealed the judgment of the trial court (Maryland) which convicted and
sentenced him in Baltimore for driving under the influence of alcohol, pursuant
to Md. Code Ann., Transp. § 21-902 (1999).
The defendant had a prior traffic ticket for speeding.

Holdings:
The Maryland Court made the
following holding:
- A valid investigatory
stop requires only that the police have specific articulable facts which,
taken together with rational inferences from those facts, create
reasonable suspicion that the person has been or is about to be involved
in criminal conduct. The officer, of course, must be able to articulate
something more than an inchoate and unparticularized suspicion or hunch.
The level of suspicion necessary to show reasonable suspicion is
considerably less than proof of wrongdoing by a preponderance of the
evidence. In reviewing the factors that led the agents to stop and
question the respondent, it is important to recall that a trained law
enforcement agent may be able to perceive and articulate meaning in given
conduct which would be wholly innocent to the untrained observer.
- "Custodial interrogation" occurs under circumstances presumptively constituting unconstitutional compulsion. A mere "stop," unless it escalates into a more significant detention, will presumably be brief, whereas custodial interrogation may frequently be prolonged indefinitely, with the suspect fearing that questioning will continue until he provides his interrogators the answers they seek.
