Create a 10 pages page paper that discusses diversity in criminal justice. After a failed radio communication that the suspect had entered the apartment to the right, the police officers sensed the smell of marijuana coming from the left apartment, and upon sensing the smell coming from the left apartment, they knocked and announced their intention to search the house. After making their announcement, they heard noises, which felt like those of people destroying the evidence of marijuana among others, and that prompted their forced entry into the house (O’Connor, 2011). After gaining entry into King’s house, they found him smoking Indian hemp. inside the house, the police also found cocaine in the house. The police searched the house further and found more illegal drugs and things related to drugs use and possible drug trafficking.

During the trial of the suspects arrested at the wrongfully identified house – where the suspect had entered – the trial defendant attempted a motion to suppress the evidence collected during the warrantless search made at the suspects’ apartment (O’Connor, 2011). The motion to suppress the evidence, on the basis that the officers had violated the 4th amendment was rejected at lower courts but was upheld by the Kentucky Supreme Court. However, after the case arrived at the US Supreme Court, the previous ruling was reversed, and it maintained that an unwarranted search conducted during exigent circumstances did not amount to the violation of the Fourth Amendment. The condition for the position maintained was that a warrantless search did not violate the fourth amendment, as long as the police were not responsible for the creation of the exigency, after violating or threatening the fourth amendment (Levick, 2012).
