Description
Convicted upon a two-count indictment for importing and facilitating the transportation of heroin into the United States in violation of Section 174, Title 21 U.S.C.A. as amended, appellant Donald Eugene King appeals, assigning one ground of error of the trial court, towit, its denial of his motion to suppress evidence that he was subjected to fluoroscopy at the hands of a government physician resulting in the discovery of a foreign object in his abdomen which, when recovered through the use of Epsom Salts, turned out to be one gram of heroin enclosed in a plastic container. The court heard extensive oral testimony on the motion and decided it after consideration of briefs. The written opinion rendered by it contains a full statement of the facts and the law and, with what was there written, we are in complete agreement, finding, as we do, that the decision is amply supported by the evidence. Based upon the facts and the reasoning of the trial courts opinion, we think the motion to suppress was properly denied.
