upon the information obtained from the named informant in determining that Fish was involved in drug trafficking, the court erroneously found that the C.I.’s information was unreliable and untimely. The court appears to have failed to consider either the self-incriminating nature of the C.I.’s information or the extent to which the information had been corroborated. Corporal Forey indicated that although the C.I. had been incarcerated in at least three state prisons for fraud and deceit-related crimes, he provided reliable information in the past which led to the seizure of marijuana and stolen property. The search warrant affidavit also stated that the C.I. provided accurate information which led to another individual’s arrest and conviction on a drug trafficking charge. See id. (<HOLDING>); cf. Silvestri, 136 N.H. at 525-26, 618 A.2d
