G. Criminal Defense Minus the BoR? Imagine a lawyer is defending a client who was charged with a crime after police showed up wi

thout a warrant, walked right into the client’s home, and found drugs after searching every nook and crannie in the house. Today, the lawyer would make an argument based on the 4th Amendment. But what if there had never been a compromise, and no bill of rights was ever added to the Constitution?
Use what you learned in this lesson to craft a defense based on the Constitution alone.

"Your Honor, our evidence proves the defendant is guilty of drug possession. Officers found the drugs in the back of the defendant’s messy sock drawer!"

"Your Honor, this was an outrageous invasion of my client’s rights! The Constitution protects my client from this sort of behavior because..."

The client suffered an unwarranted police invasion and this is outrageous because it disobeys the Fourth Constitutional Amendment.

We can reach this conclusion because:

  • The defense attorney could claim that the home invasion without filing a search warrant violates the Fourth Constitutional Amendment.
  • This amendment states that no search or seizure of evidence of a crime can be carried out in the suspects' homes, without a search and seizure warrant being presented.
  • In this case, the lawyer could claim that the police violated a client's citizen's right by breaking into and searching the house for drugs.

While this is true, there are some cases where the Fourth Amendment can be ignored and law enforcement officers can break into homes looking for evidence of serious crimes, such as drug trafficking, for example.

Therefore, even using this fourth amendment to defend the client, he could not claim that the police acted incorrectly.

Which academy was founded in London in 1660 to promote and encourage the works and ideas of scientists?
weeeeeb [17]
<span>The Royal Society. The full name of the group when it originated was "The President, Council and Fellows of the Royal Society of London for Improving Natural Knowledge." The group of science-minded men began their organization in 1660 and sought and received a charter of incorporation from King Charles II in 1662. Some of the key people in getting the group started were Christopher Wren and Robert Boyle. While the Royal Society had official endorsement from the king and to this day continues to have the blessing of the British government, it was and is an voluntary organization, not a government agency. During the Scientific Revolution, the Royal Society served as a clearinghouse of knowledge and a network to connect those pursuing scientific discovery. A great book that shows the role the Royal Society played in the Scientific Revolution is: Ingenious Pursuits: Building the Scientific Revolution, by Lisa Jardine (1999).</span>

How does texas contribute to the united states? (history wise)
My name is Ann [436]

Spanish missionaries were the first European settlers in Texas, founding San Antonio in 1718. Hostile natives and isolation from other Spanish colonies kept Texas sparsely populated until following the Revolutionary War and the War of Mexican Independence, when the newly established Mexican government began to allow settlers from the U.S. to claim land there. This led to a population explosion, but dramatically reduced the percentage of the population with Mexican heritage, causing friction with the government in Mexico City. After several smaller insurrections, the Texas Revolution broke out, and the state became an independent nation in 1835. However, the newly formed Texas Republic was unable to defend itself from further incursions by Mexican troops, and eventually negotiated with the U.S. to join the union in 1845.
