If I can direct your attention here.

-Emanuel and the E&E were pretty good. I used them to clarify some issues that I was a bit confused on, and every case discussed in my class was covered in the E&E. If you choose one, go for the E&E.

Thanks. I'm also looking for other suggestions and perspectives. Seems like that guy was the only one to give any crim pro suggestions.

As far as conceptually grasping the material, I don't think you can beat Understanding Criminal Procedure (Dressler). I got lost a couple of times in criminal procedure (e.g. car searches and the nuances of Miranda) and that hornbook always explained complicated rules clearly and also has a lot of great policy discussions. I've heard some people say that their crim pro professors specifically recommended that hornbook, too.
