1 POLICE AND THE LAW USE OF FORCE
2 OBJECTIVE BASIS Allows for informal decision making BUT Formal requirements of the U.S. Constitution Controls formal criminal justice process Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Eighth and Fourteenth Amendments
3 BILL OF RIGHTS THE FIRST TEN AMENDMENTS Added more than 200 years ago Little impact until 1960s Majority of all criminal law is state law Constitution is a Federal document Interpreted as protecting citizens against mistreatment from the Federal Gov t
4 After Civil War, Fourteenth Amendment was added No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the U.S.; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
5 In the 1960s the U.S. Supreme Court interpreted it to apply to states From due process revolution U.S. Supreme Court took an activist role Chief Justice Earl Warren Hastened the development of professional policing
6 LAW INVESTIGATION AND ARREST First step Suspected violation of a law Breaking the law does not guarantee becoming a subject of the CJ process Police must be notified Investigation To determine if a crime has been committed
7 PROBABLE CAUSE Required by Fourth Amendment It means that there are enough facts and circumstances for a reasonable officer in light of their expertise to believe the person arrested has committed, is committing, or is about to commit a crime. More than a hunch less than proof beyond a reasonable doubt
8 Totality of the circumstances SEARCHES Where ever people have a reasonable expectation of privacy, gov t intrusions are searches Exceptions Threat of violence, hot pursuit and occupants will destroy evidence
9 Fourth Amendment only bans unreasonable searches Warrants Police have evidence that establishes probable cause, they write it in a sworn statement supported by oath or affirmation. If the Judge signs this statement it becomes a warrant Indicates that the Judge agrees with the Officer
10 Plain view doctrine Not a search if: Officers discover the evidence by means of their ordinary senses, sight, smell, hearing and touch Officers discover the evidence inadvertently Officers have a right to be where they are and are doing what they have a right to do Consent search rule Must be voluntary
11 Stop and frisk Not under arrest Pat downs of outer clothing Should back up with reasonable suspicion to stop Search incident to arrest Body cavity
12 CURTILAGE The area immediately surrounding a house or domicile including all structures within that area having the same constitutional protection as the house or domicile itself
13 Automobiles Open fields and abandoned property Electronic eavesdropping U.S. Patriot Act of 2001 has changed this Prison cells No expectation of privacy
14 ARREST Must have probable cause The act of taking a person into physical custody by authority of law for the purpose of charging the person with a crime Not free to leave In the case of a misdemeanor it must have taken place in the officer s presence, there are exceptions
15 Interrogation Miranda You have the right to remain silent Anything you say can be used against you in a court of law You have the right to talk to a lawyer and have a lawyer present while you are being questioned
16 If you want a lawyer before or during questioning but cannot afford one, one will be appointed to represent you If you answer questions now without a lawyer you still have the right to stop answering questions at any time
17 Then must be asked: Do you understand each of these rights I have explained to you? Having these rights in mind, do you wish to talk with me now? Silence alone is not a waiver
18 PUBLIC SAFETY EXCEPTION TO MIRANDA NEW YORK V. QUARLES State v Scales 1994 MN decision
19 EXCLUSIONARY RULE THROWS OUT GOOD EVIDENCE BECAUSE OF BAD POLICE BEHAVIOR Deters unconstitutional police behavior Good Faith Exception Officers who conduct a search, or who seize evidence, on the basis of good faith and who later discover that a mistake was made may still use the seized evidence in court. (Search Warrants)
20 Fruit of the poisoned tree doctrine Complex cases developed after years of police investigative effort may be ruined if defense attorneys are able to demonstrate that the prosecution s case was originally based upon a search or declared tainted. School searches
21 USE OF FORCE Police use legitimate force to gain control of resisting or fleeing suspects and to protect themselves or others from injury and death Officers will use force only when it is necessary in the performance of their legal duties
