Annotations  The discovery of "harp sheets" by the Department of Correctional Services during an independent, administratively inspired inventory of a parole officer's state-owned car was sufficiently independent and distinguishable from an illegal police wiretap of the parole officer's phone to purge the "harp sheets" from any taint arising from the wiretap. The "harp sheets" were not evidence derived from an unlawful police wiretap. State v. Gallagher, 214 Neb. 487, 334 N.W.2d 458 (1983). The subject of an illegal wiretap may testify at a criminal trial if his identity was made known by means other than the illegal wiretap or his decision to testify is voluntary. State v. Anderson and Hochstein, 207 Neb. 51, 296 N.W.2d 440 (1980).
