Deputy Shrader Case Study
I believe Deputy Shrader was completely wrong. When I first read the facts of the case, I was on the fence but the moment he begin yelling and the conversation went past 20 minutes, he was in the wrong. If I were Jessie, I would not feel free to go in my own home. Not only did Deputy Shrader decide to go to Jessie's house to question him about the stolen chemicals after acknowledging that there was not enough evidence to get a warrant, but he preceded to Jessie's house with no warrant and plans to question Jessie. Not to mention he also did not read Jessie his Miranda rights.

Jessie's confession was involuntary. Just as in Berkemer v. McCarty, a court can find that Jessie was unsure whether or not he was "in custody." Deputy Shrader definitely

    Tennessee V. Garner

    • 829 Words
    • 4 Pages

    On October 3, 1974, Memphis Police Officers Hymon and Wright were dispatched to answer a "prowler inside call." When the police arrived at the scene, a neighbor gestured to the house where she had heard glass breaking and that someone was breaking into the house. While one of the officer radioed that they were on the scene, the other officer went to the rear of the house hearing a door slam and saw someone run across the backyard. The suspect, Edward Garner stopped at a 6-feet-high fence at the edge of the yard and proceeded to climb the fence as the police officer called out "police, halt." The police officer figured that if Garner made it over the fence he would get away and also "figured" that Garner was unarmed. Officer Hymon then shot him, hitting him in the back of the head. In using deadly force to prevent the escape of Garner, Hymon used the argument that actions were made under the authority of the Tennessee statute and pursuant to Police Department policy. Although the department's policy was slightly more restrictive than the statute it still allowed the use of deadly force in cases of burglary. Garner's fathers' argument was made that his son was shot unconstitutionally because he was captured and shot possessing ten dollars that he had stolen and being unarmed showing no threat of danger to the officer. The incident was then reviewed by the Memphis Police Firearm's Review Board and presented to a grand jury of the Federal District Court and the Court of Appeals. Neither of these presentations of the incident took any action.…

    In this paper I’m going to detail the judicial process of a Supreme Court case, which was the first of its kind. The Supreme Court did not have original jurisdiction over this case.

This case was of interest to them, not to question it the defendant was guilty, but were his constitutional rights violated in the process of prosecuting him. This case began with an anonymous tip that the defendant was growing illegal contraband at his home. The DEA assigned Detective Padraja and Detective Bartelt to sit on the home. After making the decision that no one was home the…

    The most common types of police misconduct include excessive force, sexual assault, intentional false arrest, falsifying evidence, extortion, and other related offenses (Color 2000). Police misconduct has become more prevalent since 1970 when drugs became a major driver of corruption replacing gambling, prostitution and alcohol (Bayley 2011). Public activists groups and internal affairs units are put in place in law enforcement agencies which primarily govern police misconduct investigations by officers under the “Depravation of Right under Color of Law,” Title 18, US Code, Section 242, (Color 2000). There are important factors to focus on to help understand and prevent officer misconduct, including officer’s integrity, positive leadership, and continuing ethical boundaries long after the hiring process. However, this scrutiny should not prevent police officers from effectively doing their jobs and seeking a peace officer career.…

    So Aldo did his job and alert that in the driver's side door smelled drugs which give Wheatley probable cause so that the police officer to search Harris truck. The reason, the police officer use a warrantless search and arrest was because at the commission moment it was not feasible to obtaining warrant prior to the search and arrest. Aldo's alert investigation give substantial evidence that Harry has committed a crime that lead to the discovery of "200 loose pseudoephedrine pills, 8,000 matches, a bottle of hydrochloric acid, two containers of antifreeze, and a coffee filter full of iodine crystals- all ingredients for making methamphetamine." Once again, the Fourth Amendment of the Constitution allows the police officer like Wheetley to conducted a warrantless search to Harris's truck because in that circumstances it was likely that the evidence will be destroyed. As a result, the trial court permitted the evidence to be submitted at trial that most likely will confirm the charged of possession of pseudoephedrine against…
