Charles BAKER, Petitioner, v. STATE of Florida, Respondent.
    No. 81614.
    Supreme Court of Florida.
    June 2, 1994.
    Richard L. Jorandby, Public Defender and Allen J. DeWeese, Asst. Public Defender, Fifteenth Judicial Circuit, West Palm Beach, for petitioner.
    Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Joan Fowler, Sr. Asst. Atty. Gen. and Sarah B. Mayer, Asst. Atty. Gen., West Palm Beach, for respondent.
   PER CURIAM.

We review Baker v. State, 614 So.2d 559 (Fla. 4th DCA 1993), based on conflict. We have jurisdiction. Art. V, § 3(b)(3), Fla. Const.

We recently resolved the issue presented in this ease in Metcalf v. State, 635 So.2d 11 (Fla.1994), where we found a due process violation when police used illegally manufactured drugs in a reverse-sting operation. On authority of Metcalf we quash the decision under review.

It is so ordered.

GRIMES, C.J., and OVERTON, SHAW, KOGAN and HARDING, JJ., concur.

McDONALD, Senior Justice, dissents.
