Imagine you are the chief of police and just had a police officer working under you report information he found in a suspect's car. The man is a suspect in his wife's murder, but has not been brought in yet due to lack of evidence. The police officer decided to break into the suspect's vehicle without a warrant and explained that he did not think he would have time to run it past you, but that he thought it would be okay because it was in plain view. The suspect is asserting that the evidence the officer found was in a glove box, so it was not in plain view. How do you react, and what do you decide? Explain.
