VICTORY IN FEDERAL COURT 

After a three-day suppression hearing, the United States District Court in Cleveland, Ohio accepts Tom Hudson's arguments and suppresses 160 pounds of cocaine--one of the largest suppressions in history.

The suppression hearing in Cleveland involved the testimony of local police, FBI agents and IRS agents, but Judge Wells accepted the defendants' arguments that the search was illegal.   The evidence cannot be used against the defendants.
