Reno seeks expanded police powers before Supreme Court
Attorney General Janet Reno argued before the Supreme Court for police to order all passengers out of vehicles during routine traffic stops. Justices challenged the plan citing risks of abuse and the lack of a reasonableness limitation. Maryland’s Curran faced tough questions as the court weighs Fourth Amendment protections and past rulings. A decision is anticipated by July.
