Footnote 16 [ 2 U.S. 213, 223] out of West Palm Beach on an interstate highway used by travelers from South Florida to Chicago in an automobile bearing a license plate issued to him. §7.1 INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW There, an informant named Hereford reported that Draper would arrive in Denver on a train from Chicago on one of two days, and that he would be carrying a quantity of heroin. In his view, "[t]he argument instead relates to the reliability of the source: because an informant is right about some things, he is more probably right about other facts, usually the critical, unverified facts." "[O]nly the probability, and not a prima facie showing, of criminal activity is the standard of probable cause." The suspect also told the officer that the gun used in the robbery was hidden in the other suspect's apartment. 6 One study reveals that one-third of federal defendants going to trial file Fourth Amendment suppression motions, and 70% to 90% of these involve formal hearings. U.S. 41 The essential protection of the warrant requirement of the Fourth Amendment, as stated in Johnson v. United States, Brief Fact Summary. . On May 3, 1978, the Police Department of Bloomingdale, Ill., received an anonymous letter which included statements that respondents, husband and wife, were engaged in selling drugs; that the wife would drive their car to Florida on May 3 to be loaded with drugs, and the husband would fly down in a few days to drive the car back; that the car's trunk would be loaded with drugs; and that respondents presently had over $100,000 worth of drugs in their basement. The judge of that court thereupon issued a search warrant for the Gateses' residence and for their automobile. This evolvement in the understanding of the proper scope of the exclusionary rule embraces several lines of cases. (1981) (REHNQUIST, J., dissenting) (advocating overruling of Mapp v. Ohio, supra). See also Kolender v. Lawson, Oregon v. Hass, 420 U.S. 714, 719, 95 S.Ct. In any event, it is apparent from the Court's discussion of them, see ante, at 232-233, n. 7, that they are not inconsistent with Aguilar. The "basis of knowledge" prong is satisfied by a statement from the informant that he personally observed the criminal activity, or, if he came by the information indirectly, by a satisfactory explanation of why his sources were reliable, or, in the absence of a statement detailing the manner in which the information was gathered, by a description of the accused's criminal activity in sufficient detail that the magistrate may infer that the informant is relying on something more substantial than casual rumor or an individual's general reputation. In Bridger v. State, 503 S.W.2d 801 (Tex.Cr.App.1974), the affiant had received a confession of armed robbery from one of two suspects in the robbery; in addition, the suspect had given the officer $800 in cash stolen during the robbery. .

United States, Because of the inherent trustworthiness of seized tangible evidence and the resulting social costs from its loss through suppression, application 4709 (U.S. June 8, 1983) Brief Fact Summary. The informant had given accurate information in the past. U.S. 128, 136 App., at 530, 313 A. AS JUSTICE STEVENS Peltier held that Almeida-Sanchez v. United States, By replacing Aguilar and Spinelli with a test that provides no assurance that magistrates, rather than the police, or informants, will make determinations of probable cause; imposes no structure on magistrates' probable-cause inquires; and invites the possibility that intrusions may be justified on less than reliable information from an honest or credible person, today's decision threatens to "obliterate one of the most fundamental distinctions between our form of government, where officers are under the law, and the police-state where they are the law." 405 ] It is a truism that "a search warrant is valid only if probable cause has been shown to the magistrate and that an inadequate showing may not be rescued by post-search testimony on information known to the searching officers at the time of the search." Ibid. See, e.g., United States v. Havens, 446 U.S. 620, 100 S.Ct. 652 (1914), should to any extent be modified, so as, for example, not to require the exclusion of evidence obtained in the reasonable belief that the search and seizure at issue was consistent with the Fourth Amendment.".

Our prior decisions interpreting the "not pressed or passed on below" rule have not, however, involved a State's failure to raise a defense to a federal right or remedy asserted below.

[462 A magistrate's "determination of probable cause should be paid great deference by reviewing courts." As shown above, it is not at all necessary to overrule Aguilar-Spinelli in order to reverse the judgment below. U.S. 165 Issue. [462 There are several types of Fourth Amendment violations that may be said to fall under the rubric of "good faith." CIVIL PROCEDURE GENERALLY The Supreme Court The decision in Stanley, while expressly approving and conscientiously attempting to apply the "two-pronged test" observes that "[t]he built-in subtleties [of the test] are such, however, that a slipshod application calls down upon us the fury of Murphy's Law." 18 The standards inform the police of what information they have to provide and magistrates of what information they should demand. Moreover, the informant's story was corroborated by other sources. 2727, 73 L.Ed.2d 396 (1982). The Illinois Supreme Court, like some others, apparently understood Spinelli as requiring that the anonymous letter satisfy each of two independent requirements before it could be relied on. U.S. 213, 284] [462 We will never know how many guilty defendants go free as a result of the rule's operation. The letter contained many details about the couple and their drug business, including how the Gateses would obtain their illegal marijuana to sell and when the next transaction would occur. In Nathanson v. United States, 428 See, e.g., McGoldrick v. Compagnie Generale, 309 U.S. 430, 435-436, 60 S.Ct. As explained below, however, we can see no reason to treat the State's failure to have challenged an asserted federal claim differently from the failure of the proponent of a federal claim to have raised that claim. With him on the briefs on reargument were Tyrone C. Fahner, former Attorney General, Neil F. Hartigan, Attorney General, Michael A. Ficaro and Morton E. Friedman, Assistant Attorneys General, Daniel M. Harris, and James B. Zagel. 99, 107 (1982). See 85 Ill. 2d, at 388, 423 N. E. 2d, at 892. I.

U.S. 213, 281] After the police corroborated these facts,23 the magistrate could reasonably have inferred, as he apparently did, that the informant, who had specific knowledge of these unusual travel plans, did not make up his story and that he obtained his information in a reliable way. The Illinois Supreme Court upheld the lower court’s ruling that the search was unlawful. Ante, at 230-231 (footnote omitted). ] JUSTICE STEVENS is correct, post, at 291, that one of the informant's predictions proved to be inaccurate. . 378 The most important concepts in this Chapter are: “Res judicata”: There is a set of rules that prevents re-litigation of claims and issues; the set is sometimes collectively called the doctrine of “res judicata.” There are two main categories of rules governing re-litigation: the rules of “claim preclusion” and the rules of “collateral estoppel.” "Instead of disciplining their employees, police departments generally have adopted the attitude that the courts cannot be satisfied, that the rules are hopelessly complicated and subject to change, and that the suppression of evidence is the court's problem and not the departments'." Footnote 4 The Illinois Supreme Court also properly recognized that Detective Mader's affidavit might be capable of supplementing the anonymous letter with information sufficient to permit a determination of probable cause. [462 ." Special Limitations on Judicial Review of State Laws, The First Amendment: Freedom of Speech and of the Press, Chapter 8. and Giordenello and noted the requirement established by those cases that an officer provide the magistrate with the underlying facts or circumstances that support the officer's conclusion that there is probable cause to justify the issuance of a warrant. ." . 1027, 1050 (1974). Several Members of this Court have for some time expressed the need to consider modifying the exclusionary rule, ante, at 224, and Congress as well has been active in exploring the question. 2841, 2851, 69 L.Ed.2d 744 (REHNQUIST, J., dissenting) (advocating overruling of Mapp v. Ohio, 367 U.S. 643, 81 S.Ct. 598, 46 L.Ed.2d 561 (1976); Los Angeles v. Lyons, --- U.S. ----, 103 S.Ct.

United States, 333 U.S. 10, 17, 68 S.Ct. Likewise, a noted commentator has observed that "[t]he Aguilar-Spinelli formulation has provoked apparently ceaseless litigation." 329, 3 L.Ed.2d 327 (1959), affords no support for today's holding. In order to emphasize the magistrate's role as an independent arbiter of probable cause and to insure that searches or seizures are not effected on less than probable cause, the Court has insisted that police officers provide magistrates with the underlying facts and circumstances that support the officers' conclusions. U.S. 573, 585 But see United States v. Johnson, --- U.S. ----, 102 S.Ct. Footnote 8 In my view, the question regarding modification of the exclusionary rule framed in our order of November 29, 1982, --- U.S. ---- (1982), is properly before us and should be addressed. FREEDOM OF RELIGION The main focus should be whether there is an inference, based upon the suspects’ actions, that the informant is credible and the information was obtained in a reliable manner. After receiving briefs and hearing oral argument on this question, however, we requested the parties to address an additional question: Our certiorari jurisdiction over decisions from state courts derives from 28 U.S.C.
