=Today's Application = Today there are a lot of controversy upon this amendment because if someone is searched without a warrant and the persons find what they are looking for they can't use this as evidence in court because there is no warrant then the officer had no constitutional right to search this person. == //However, there are some exceptions. A warrant less search may be lawful: // //A Person // //When an officer observes unusual conduct which leads him reasonably to conclude that criminal activity may be afoot, the officer may briefly stop the suspicious person and make reasonable inquiries aimed at confirming or dispelling the officer's suspicions. // //Terry v. Ohio, 392 U.S. 1 (1968) // __The organizations dealing with this amendment are: ACLU, ATR, CDT __ []
