Under the exclusionary rule, any evidence obtained in violation of the Fourth Amendment will be excluded from criminal proceedings.
The Supreme Court held that evidence obtained in violation of the Fourth Amendment is inadmissible in state courts. This ruling extended the exclusionary rule, previously applied only to federal courts, to the states. The exclusionary rule prevents courts from considering illegally obtained evidence.

A person can invoke their 5th amendment right to remain silent by clearly stating that they wish to do so. This can be done verbally or in writing. It is important to note that a person does not have to give a reason for invoking their right to remain silent, and they cannot be penalized for doing so.
