List and briefly describe the types of searches and seizures without warrants
What will be an ideal response?
Searches incident to arrest are made at the time of or shortly following an arrest to ensure the safety of the arresting officer and others. Searches based on exigent circumstances include hot pursuit, which occurs as police are chasing someone who has committed a crime; when the police have reason to believe there is potential for escape of further harm; or evanescent evidence, which is evidence likely to
disappear during the time necessary to obtain a warrant. Automobile searches are admissible when there
is probable cause of evidence of a crime or when securing a warrant is impractical. Plain -view searches are authorized when police are lawfully in an area where evidence is located, the item is immediately apparent, and discovery of the evidence is inadvertent. Consent searches occur as someone consents to search voluntarily.
