 State of Alaska v. Hazelwood (12/3/93), 866 P 2d 827
Hazelwood moved to dismiss the charges and suppress evidence, arguing that all of the State's evidence was derived either directly or indirectly from his notification, and that its admission violated the immunity granted by 33 U.S.C. 1321(b)(5) and the principles of Kastigar v.
Hazelwood contends that the absence of a deterrence rationale makes the inevitable discovery doctrine "inappropriate in the context of immunity analysis." Hazelwood asserts that the exclusionary rule and exceptions thereto were developed by balancing two competing interests: the need to deter police misconduct and the need for evidence of wrongdoing to convict the wrongdoer.
The argument Hazelwood presents in the context of a statutory grant of immunity is similar: the lack of a deterrence rationale for the exclusionary rule precludes the application of the inevitable discovery exception to the rule.

Hazelwood was the master of the largest ship ever built on the West Coast until that fateful midnight in March 1989, when his third mate and his helmsman missed a simple dogleg turn and drove his 214,000-ton tanker onto the shoals of history.
