Describe the "plain feel/touch" exception to the exclusionary rule
What will be an ideal response?
The "plainfeel/touch" exception is an extension of the plain-view exception. If a police officer lawfully pats down a suspect's outer clothing and feels an object that he immediately identifies as contraband, a warrantless seizure is justified because there is no invasion of the suspect's privacy beyond that already authorized by the officer's search for weapons.
