I think the police would ask her permission to search her car. If they receive her permission, I believe it's a legal search even if there were a clerical error involved.
I want to have an interesting way to have the evidence thrown out. I got the above idea from this:

But I am sure there are lots of ways. Ideas?
In step 6, I think the police would interview Aksana to try to get a confession (after Mirandizing her, of course). They'd also look at motive and her alibi. If she had motive and opportunity, even if they didn't have physical evidence they could still try her for murder on a circumstantial basis.
Good points. I'll have a fun interrogation scene. There is a turf war going on, and the pot farmer was involved. The police might suspect that she was hired by a rival to eliminate him—but she's just a petite young lady!
Alibi will be fun, too. It will be hard to pinpoint time of death from a head found in a shark!

Shark story related to me: Sometimes sharks will just take one bite, decide it's not a seal, and swim away. Apparently, this happened to an abalone diver, but the one bite the shark took was the guy's head.
