Answer the following statements true (T) or false (F)

Question

1. Evidence uncovered during an illegal search will be dismissed as a result of the exculpatory rule.
2. Bob Schwartz is a technician working for a local electronics store. While working on some repairs of a customer's computer, he comes across over 60 thousand music files along with software that publishes and shares playlists over the Internet. He calls law enforcement, who obtains a warrant to seize and search the computer. Because the original discovery of the files was the result of an illegal search this case will not hold up in court.
3. Any time there is no expectation of privacy for a person or their information, evidence collected under those circumstances will be considered admissible.
4. One valid exception to the hearsay rule is testimony given by an expert witness.
5. A few weeks later after Bob Schwartz advised the police of the illegal music scheme, a detective on the force calls and asks him to keep an eye out for any other examples of this. In particular, if that same customer happens to bring his computer in, take a really close look at the hard drive. The customer does bring his computer in and Bob finds child pornography. This case holds up in court because the judge has already found Bob to be an independent operator and not a government official.
