DIANA GRIBBON MOTZ, Circuit Judge,
dissenting:
For the reasons set forth in parts I and II of Judge Mumaghan’s excellent dissenting opinion, I believe the Constitution requires the rule adopted in United States v. Evans, 917 F.2d 800 (4th Cir.1990). Moreover, for many of the same reasons, even if the Constitution did not mandate this rule, I believe we could and should require it pursuant to our supervising powers. See Mu’Min v. Virginia, 500 U.S. 415, 422, 111 S.Ct. 1899, 1903, 114 L.Ed.2d 493 (1991); United States v. *754Anagnos, 853 F.2d 1, 3-4 (1st Cir.1988). Accordingly, I respectfully dissent.
