CJUS 420

Discussion 

 The issues in Vehicle Searches center on when and how to search a vehicle during a traffic stop. Which basic legal concepts are important for a patrol officer to keep in mind when stopping a vehicle for a traffic offense? How might these change depending on the circumstances?  When can a vehicle be searched without a warrant? Provide an example in which the answer may not be clear cut. For example, what if passengers had been involved in this scenario? Integrate a Christian worldview perspective to support your discussion.
