Three College Students Who Attend a Public University Share an Apartment

One resident of the apartment is there and allows police to enter. In a common area, police find drug paraphernalia and a small amount of cocaine. They seize this evidence.

B) correct in principle, but cited the wrong case.
C) only valid because somebody was home.
D) in fact consistent with appropriate Supreme Court case law.
