Police suspected that Ralph had murdered a child and had transported the body to be buried at a different location from the murder scene. Ralph was in custody and his wife had gone to stay with her mother in a different part of town

The car was one with a manual transmission, and Ralph's wife did not know how to drive a vehicle unless it was an automatic transmission. In the absence of a search warrant but with probable cause, police searched the vehicle and obtained incriminating fiber evidence against Ralph. The automobile search A) was probably illegal since the car was not going to be moved, and the man who might have moved it or destroyed evidence was in police custody. B) was illegal since motor vehicle searches require either warrants or consent to search their interiors. C) was lawful since the evidence might have deteriorated if police had taken time to get a judge to issue a search warrant. D) was clearly lawful since the police had probable cause to search for fiber evidence and motor vehicles never require search warrants. E) was illegal since the search of all automobiles must be conducted pursuant to a warrant unless an emergency exists.
