Holdings:

The Massachusetts Court made the following holding:

  • In reviewing a ruling on a motion to suppress evidence, the court accepts the judge's subsidiary findings of fact absent clear error and leave to the judge the responsibility of determining the weight and credibility to be given oral testimony presented at the motion hearing. Moreover, the court gives substantial deference to the judge's ultimate findings and conclusions of law, but independently reviews the correctness of the judge's application of constitutional principles to the facts found.
  • Reasonable suspicion that the defendant was operating while under the influence of intoxicants would suffice to justify the minimally intrusive detention and search that field sobriety tests entail.
