Question: 1. Do you agree with Justice Brennan that the protective sweep goes beyond the Terry v. Ohio decision? Explain your position.
2. In United States v. Leon, the Supreme Court created a "good-faith" exception to the probable cause requirement of the Fourth Amendment. Under Leon, evidence seized in good faith pursuant to a search warrant is admissible at trial, even though it is later determined that probable cause was lacking. Should this exception be extended to warrantless searches when an officer has a good-faith belief that probable cause exists?
3. Do you believe that the exclusionary rule is required under the Fourth Amendment? Can you think of any alternatives to the rule?
