Criminal Procedure Part 1: The 4th Amendment and the Exclusionary Rule

In this week’s episode, we delve into key concepts in Criminal Procedure, focusing on the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, which safeguards individuals from unreasonable searches and seizures. We also explore the Exclusionary Rule, a critical doctrine that bars evidence obtained in violation of a defendant's constitutional rights from being used in court. Join us as we examine landmark cases that have shaped these principles, including Wolf v. Colorado (1949), Mapp v. Ohio (1961), United States v. Leon (1984), Hudson v. Michigan (2006), Herring v. United States (2009), State v. McElrath (2019), and State v. McLawhorn (2020).  Introductory Music for American Law Cafe.
