Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.
We review Tisby v. State, 614 So. 2d 586 (Fla. 4th DCA 1993), based on constitutional construction. We have jurisdiction. Art. Y, § 3(b)(3), Fla. Const. We recently resolved the issue presented in this ease in Metcalf v. State, 635 So. 2d 11 (Fla.1994), where we found a due process violation when police used illegally manufactured drugs in a reverse-sting operation. On authority of Metcalf we quash the decision under review.
It is so ordered.
