It is so interesting that this happed this week when the Constitutional Rights Foundation chose this topic as their Mock Trial topic this year. The CRF does a mock trial competition for high school students nationally and the competition is going on right now. Last Tuesday night I judged the first round in the competition. The law in this area is very interesting. The students do have a right to privacy and a right to be free from illegal searches and seizures but the question is whether the police had probable cause to search the way they did. It seems from the information available in the media that the tactics used were quite extreme. I am not a big fan of scare tactics of this sort and doubt any court out here would be.
