Question

What does Dollree Mapp charged with in the supreme court case Mapp v. Ohio?

Answer 1

C is the correct answer.

Dollree Mapp was originally charged with having materials from a numbers racket in her possession. After she wouldn't cooperate, she was charged with having obscene books in her possession as well.

The Supreme Court ultimately ruled that the 4th amendment applied to state proceedings as well and since all materials were obtained during an illegal search, Mapp was acquitted.
