FAQ

“The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things ...

Examples of probable cause include finding illegal substances during a search, witnessing a person commit a crime, or receiving credible information from an informant. However, intuition or hunches alone are not sufficient to establish probable cause under the Fourth Amendment.
