4th Amendment

          The 4th Amendment allows for some basic privacy on citizen-owned land. This amendment prevents random searches from taking place, unless a warrrant is issued. No warrants can be issued without probable cause of illicit activities. One case of this is Bond v. The United States. Bond was suspected of possessing and distributing methamphetamine. A warrant was issued and he was convicted of this crime after finding evidence in his home. Another example of a case that is related to the 4th Amendment is Kyllo v. The United States. He was suspected of growing marijuana in his home. They used a spectral imaging device in order to search his home. They found evidence of this and he was eventually convicted of his crimes after much fighting. The 4th Amendment is a vital part to much of how the government deliberates on certain cases.
