Officer Jerry stops Bridget on the street because he thinks her haircut is unattractive. During a pat-down search, he finds marijuana in her pocket. He then uses the discovery of the marijuana to get a warrant to search her home for drugs. The search uncovers eight kilos of cocaine. If she challenges the admissibility of both drugs, how should the court rule
