Supreme Court Broadens Police Search Authority
The Supreme Court, in a 6 to 3 decision, held that a lawful arrest grants police authority to perform a full search of the arrestee, ruling heroin found during a DC arrest admissible. Justice Rehnquist wrote for the majority, while Justice Marshall with Justices Douglas and Brennan dissented, arguing the ruling abandons case by case Fourth Amendment scrutiny. The decision also upheld a Florida case where marijuana cigarettes were found on a student, stating probable cause and lawful arrest negate need for a full search.
