EDITOR Elisabeth Roszmann Ebben ACQUISITIONS EDITOR Michael C. Braswell Preface Four decades have passed since the fi rst edition of this textbook. During the 1960s and 1970s, the Supreme Court waged a campaign to reform the criminal justice system through the selective incorporation of Bill of Rights safeguards into the Fourteenth Amendment. Having constitutionalized crim- inal procedure, the Supreme Court then elaborated a set of constitutionally mandated restraints on police behavior. The “goodness” or “badness” of a legal precept, nevertheless, depends on how well it works in practice. This can only be known through empirical validation. So it is with constitutional inter- pretations. Just as the 1960s and 1970s were periods of reform and tremendous constitutional expansion, the current period is marked by solidifi cation and correction. Criminal justice became ensconced as a learned profession in the 1960s when Congress recognized that compliance with the Supreme Court’s con- stitutional mandates required better-educated police offi cers and appropriated funds to establish programs for their higher education. Discerning the need for high-quality learning materials, John Klotter embarked on a career of police scholarship that has spanned more than four decades. I was fortunate enough to be John’s co-author since the fi rst edition of this book. After seven editions, John decided to make a transition from working on this textbook to concentrat- ing on keeping his other titles up-to-date. Michael Kanovitz came on board as co-author at that time. During the years since the Eleventh Edition, the Supreme Court has announced a host of new decisions involving traffi c stops, pat-down searches, searches incident to arrest, the exclusionary rule, interrogations, and affi rma- tive action, among other topics. The Twelfth Edition contains six new cases. Many are high-profi le; you will recognize them from having read about them in the news. We wish to thank the professors, instructors, and police departments who have used our book over the years, especially for their suggestions, comments, and support, and most of all for the opportunity they have given us to engage in the intensive study of the Constitution as it applies to criminal justice personnel. We hope you will be pleased with the Twelfth Edition and we welcome your comments and questions. We can be reached at [email protected]. iii This page intentionally left blank John C. Klotter Justice Administration Legal Series John C. Klotter, J.D. was a Professor Emeritus and Former Dean of the School of Justice Administration, University of Louisville. Professor Klotter began his association with Anderson Publishing in 1967, serving as Editorial Director of its newly formed Police Publications Advisory Board. In 1968, he co-authored, with Jacqueline Kanovitz, the fi rst edition of Constitutional Law for Police, whose title was later changed to Constitutional Law. This book was made part of a Justice Administration Legal Series for which Klotter also authored Criminal Evidence in 1971 (now in its tenth edition) and later added Criminal Law (now in its ninth edition). Legal Guide for Police: Constitutional Issues, now in its eighth edition, was fi rst published in 1977. In honor of Professor Klotter’s contribution to the fi eld of criminal justice and his role with Anderson Publishing in serving this discipline, LexisNexis is proud to rename the series the John C. Klotter Justice Administration Legal Series. About the Author Jacqueline Kanovitz is an Emeritus Professor of the Brandeis School of Law where she taught for thirty years and served as Associate Dean for Student Affairs. She also taught at other law schools. She holds a J.D. (summa cum laude) from the University of Louisville School of Law. She is the recipient of numerous awards for teaching and writing excellence and has been a co-author of this textbook since the fi rst edition in 1968. v This page intentionally left blank Table of Contents PART I: Chapter 1 History, Structure, and Content of the United States Constitution 1 Section 1.1 History of the United States Constitution 3 1.2 —Early Steps Toward National Unity 3 1.3 —Articles of Confederation 4 1.4 —Drafting the United States Constitution 4 1.5 —Ratifi cation by the States 5 1.6 Structure and Content of the Constitution 6 1.7 —Separation of the Powers of the National Government 7 1.8 —Division of Power between the National Government and the States 9 1.9 —Powers Granted to the Federal Government 10 1.10 —Powers the States Are Forbidden to Exercise 16 1.11 —Sovereign Powers Retained by the States 17 1.12 The Bill of Rights 19 1.13 —Applying the Bill of Rights to the States through the Fourteenth Amendment 23 1.14 The Fourteenth Amendment as a Limitation on State Power 24 1.15 —Due Process of Law 25 1.16 —Equal Protection of the Laws 30 1.17 Adjudication of Constitutional Questions 35 1.18 Federal Remedies for Constitutional Abuses 37 1.19 Summary 38 Chapter 2 Freedom of Speech 41 Section 2.1 Historical Background 43 2.2 Overview of Constitutional Protection for Speech and Expressive Conduct 44 2.3 Is Speech Involved? 47 2.4 First Amendment Distinction between a Speaker’s Message and the Conduct Associated with Communicating It 48 2.5 Punishing Speech Because of the Message 50 2.6 —Obscenity and Child Pornography 52 vii viii CONSTITUTIONAL LAW 2.7 —Fighting Words 56 2.8 —Threats 58 2.9 —Incitement to Immediate Illegal Action 59 2.10 —Hate Speech 64 2.11 —Crude and Vulgar Speech 66 2.12 —Commercial Speech 67 2.13 Restraints on Speech Based on Considerations Other Than the Message 68 2.14 Free Speech Access to Government Property: Public Forums and Nonpublic Forums 70 2.15 —Protecting the Community from Nuisances Linked to Speech 74 2.16 —Free Speech Access to Private Property 82 2.17 —Need for Precision in Regulating Speech 82 2.18 Summary 86 Chapter 3 Authority to Detain and Arrest; Use of Force 89 Section 3.1 Introduction 91 3.2 Overview of the Fourth Amendment 92 3.3 Crossing the Boundary of the Fourth Amendment 95 3.4 —“Free Zone” for Investigative Work 97 3.5 —“Seizure” Defi ned 97 3.6 —Fourth Amendment Grounds for a Lawful Seizure 102 3.7 Investigatory Stops 106 3.8 —Reasonable Suspicion 110 3.9 —Scope and Duration of Investigatory Stops 119 3.10 Traffi c and Vehicle Stops 127 3.11 —Pretextual Traffi c Stops 129 3.12 Requirements for a Constitutional Arrest 139 3.13 —Probable Cause 144 3.14 —Requirements for a Valid Arrest Warrant 146 3.15 —Arrests Inside a Private Residence 152 3.16 Use of Force in Making an Arrest or Other Seizure 157 3.17 State Arrest Laws 161 3.18 —Territorial Limits on a Police Offi cer’s Arrest Authority 164 3.19 Summary and Practical Suggestions 166 Chapter 4 Search and Seizure 169 Section 4.1 Overview of the Law of Search and Seizure 171 4.2 —Defi nition of a Search 176 4.3 —Sources of Search Authority 184 4.4 Seizures Under the Fourth Amendment 193 4.5 —The Fourth Amendment Search Warrant 205 TABLE OF CONTENTS ix 4.6 Searches Involving People and Personal Items 210 4.7 —The Terry Search Revisited 212 4.8 —Search Following a Custodial Arrest 215 4.9 Vehicle Searches 221 4.10 —Search of Vehicles Pursuant to a Detention or Arrest 224 4.11 —Search of Vehicles Based on Probable Cause (“Automobile Exception”) 230 4.12 —Inventory Searches of Impounded Vehicles 234 4.13 Search of Protected Premises 236 4.14 —Premises Protected by the Fourth Amendment 238 4.15 —Entry and Search of Premises Under a Warrant 242 4.16 —Entry and Search of Premises without a Warrant 248 4.17 The Exclusionary Rule 254 4.18 Summary and Practical Suggestions 261 Chapter 5 Laws Governing Police Surveillance 263 Section 5.1 Introduction to the Laws Governing Police Surveillance 265 5.2 Fourth Amendment Foundation of Police Surveillance Law: The Katz Standard 266 5.3 Application of the Katz Standard to Conventional Surveillance 269 5.4 Application of the Katz Standard to Technologically Assisted Surveillance: An Overview 273 5.5 —Electronic Tracking 278 5.6 —Video Surveillance 284 5.7 —Detection Devices 288 5.8 The Wiretap Act 293 5.9 —Scope of the Wiretap Act 295 5.10 —Procedural Requirements for Intercepting Protected Communications 298 5.11 Communication Surveillance Not Regulated by the Wiretap Act 304 5.12 —Listening with the Unaided Ear 305 5.13 —Interception of an Oral Communication

  • 41M-Search & Seizure
    Policy Number: Subject: Search & Seizure Accreditation Standards: 41M Lexington Police Reference: 1.2.4(a)(b)(c)(d)(e)(f)(g) Effective Date: Department 3/11/13 ☐New Revision 1/24/19 ☒ Revised Dates: By Order of: Mark J. Corr, Chief of Police The Municipal Police Institute, Inc. (MPI) is a private, nonprofit charitable affiliate of the Massachusetts Chiefs of Police Association. MPI provides training and model policies and procedures for police agencies. This policy is an edited version of MPI Policy 1.08, “Search & Seizure.” GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS AND GUIDELINES The Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution prohibits "unreasonable" searches and seizures, and the Supreme Court has consistently held that unless they come within one of the few carefully limited exceptions to the search warrant requirement, warrantless searches and seizures are considered unreasonable.i The Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution has been interpreted by the U.S. Supreme Court to require that, whenever possible and practicable, with certain limited exceptions, a police officer should always obtain a valid search warrant in advance.ii The following procedures have been prepared to provide basic guidelines that are both legal and practical in the technical area of searches and seizures. It is the policy of the Lexington Police Department that: Warrants shall be obtained for all searches whenever possible and practicable once the foundation for constitutional regulations have been triggered. Searches are subject to constitutional regulation when the following three conditions are met: • State action: The search must be undertaken by a state actor, (law enforcement official/ agent of the government).

  • Am I Being Detained? Am I Free to Go? by Sgt. Les L. Moody Jr. Texarkana
    Am I being detained? Am I free to go? By Sgt. Les L. Moody Jr. Texarkana Arkansas Police Department School of Law Enforcement Supervision Session XLII Am I being detained, or am I free to go? As a Sergeant with the Texarkana Arkansas Police Department, I have discovered, during my twenty-two years on the job, that law enforcement officers are faced with these questions on a daily basis. As a law enforcement officer, you will frequently need to ask yourself if you are actually detaining an individual or if it is merely a consensual encounter. Law enforcement officers make traffic stops, set up roadblocks for various reasons, serve warrants, make arrests, and search houses, vehicles and people. In each of these common duties of the officer, the individual is protected against unreasonable searches and seizures. The Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution requires that no search or seizure shall be carried out unless a warrant has been issued. However, the United States Supreme Court has recognized it is not always possible to obtain a warrant and has provided law enforcement with certain exceptions to the warrant requirement. It is important for every officer to understand his or her limitations under the law. What constitutes a search? What constitutes a seizure? Is an arrest a seizure? An officer makes a traffic stop. Does he automatically have the right to search the vehicle and occupants? An officer responds to a domestic disturbance. Does he automatically have the right to search the residence? An officer sees an individual walking in a residential neighborhood at 3 a.m.

  • In the United States District Court for the District of Kansas
    IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF KANSAS UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff, v. Case No. 15-20014-01-JAR CHRISTOPHER A. PRYOR, Defendant. MEMORANDUM AND ORDER This matter comes before the Court on Defendant Christopher Pryor’s Motion to Suppress Evidence (Doc. 13). Defendant contends that evidence seized by law enforcement from an encounter with Defendant on December 20, 2014 was seized in violation of his Fourth Amendment rights. The Government has responded (Doc. 16), and an evidentiary hearing was held on September 14, 2016. The Court has reviewed the evidence and arguments adduced at the hearing and is now prepared to rule. As explained in detail below, Defendant’s motion is denied. I. Factual Background Based on the testimony and evidence admitted at the hearing on this motion, the Court finds as follows. On December 20, 2014, Officer Nicholas Stein, an officer with the drug unit of the Olathe, Kansas Police Department, was conducting surveillance on a specific house on Loula Street in Olathe, Kansas where drug activity was suspected. Officer Stein observed a grey Toyota Corolla driven by an individual later identified as Defendant Christopher Pryor leave that home and turn north from Loula Street onto Pine Street without utilizing a left turn signal. Officer Stein attempted to get behind the vehicle, which then turned west on Santa Fe Street and north on Iowa Street. The vehicle made a right into an alleyway adjacent to Iowa Street. Based 1 on Defendant taking multiple turns and ducking into an alleyway, Officer Stein testified that he believed the driver of the vehicle was attempting to evade the police.

  • The Motor Vehicle Exception by EDWARD HENDRIE, J.D
    Legal Digest The Motor Vehicle Exception By EDWARD HENDRIE, J.D. here is a presumption that a search conducted under the authority of a T 1 search warrant is reasonable. Conversely, a search conducted without a search warrant is presumed unreasonable. 2 The presumption of unreasonable- ness can be rebutted through an applicable exception to the search warrant requirement. One of those exceptions is known as the motor vehicle exception. The U.S. Supreme © Scott Whittemore Court has ruled that if an officer has probable cause to believe and the fact that the mobility of items in the trunk, pursuant to that evidence or contraband is vehicles present an inherent standardized agency regula- located in a motor vehicle, he exigency. 4 tions; 7 or 4) search a motor may search the area of the In addition to the motor ve- vehicle upon the consent of the vehicle he reasonably believes hicle exception, there are other person who has the actual or contains that evidence without exceptions to the search warrant apparent authority and control a search warrant to the same requirement that allow an offi- over that vehicle. 8 While these degree as if he had a warrant. 3 cer to search all or part of a listed exceptions can be applied The scope of the search is motor vehicle.

U. S. Attys., for appellee. Michael Meltsner, Jack Greenberg and Ann Wagner, New York City, for appellant. Before LUMBARD, MOORE and SMITH, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: Bernard Gaines was convicted of a federal narcotics violation on May 16, 1968. He was released on bail pending sentencing. On June 1, 1968, he was arrested by New York State authorities on charges of robbery and murder and held without bail. On June 20, 1968, he was brought before the federal court pursuant to a writ of habeas corpus ad prosequendum and sentenced to two years on the narcotics charge. He was then returned to the custody of the New York authorities who proceeded with the preliminaries to prosecution on the murder and robbery charges. On December 5, 1969, bail was set for the first time in the amount of $7,500. Gaines' counsel had made no previous application for bail because he had believed that Gaines' indigency would preclude his posting bail in any amount which might conceivably be set in light of the seriousness of the pending charges. (Appendix to Gaines' brief in this court at 25a.) Gaines was unable to post bail in this amount and he remained confined by the New York authorities.
