Respond to the two discussion questions below and post your response addressing those two questions in one post-response (be sure to identify the questions you selected in your response). This post is due before Sunday at 11:59. (NO AI WRITTEN).
- In Illinois v. Caballes (2005), the Court held that “a dog sniff conducted during a concededly lawful traffic stop that reveals no information other than the location of a substance that no individual has any right to possess does not violate the Fourth Amendment.” Discuss the case and the Court’s reasoning that the “dog sniff” was constitutional.
- United States v. Ross (1982) is one of the top five cases in vehicle stops, searches, and inventories. Discuss the case and its importance in law enforcement. What about this case makes it important to police officers? Discuss what effect it has likely had on the behavior of police officers.
