Prompt Student Response Amendment: Choose the Fourth, Sixth, or Eighth Amendment Amendment: The Fourth Amendment Summary: In 100–150 words, summarize the amendment you chose. Be sure your summary includes all rights given to citizens in that particular amendment. Summary: The Fourth Amendment is designed to safeguard an individual's right to be free from unreasonable searches and seizures by law enforcement officials. It prevents them from carrying out random searches or seizures and ensures that they have a valid warrant that specifically describes what they are looking for. Additionally, the Fourth Amendment requires that there must be probable cause for the issuance of a warrant, making it clear that law enforcement officials cannot act solely on their own discretion. The Fourth Amendment grants various rights to citizens, including: - The right to feel safe and secure in their own bodies, personal belongings, and documents. - Protection against unwarranted searches and seizures. - Protection against the issuance of warrants without probable cause.

The judge cannot take any action against a suspect without clear evidence that his or her residence or property contains incriminating evidence. However, criminal justice professionals respect each other and work together to improve the organization. As a result, judges may allow certain cases to slide and permit police to conduct searches without sufficient evidence sometimes because of respect for the law. Police officers may face a dilemma where they are unable to proceed with a case due to insufficient evidence to conduct a thorough investigation. Despite their desire to help solve or resolve the matter quickly, they may have to hold back until more evidence is available. Besides overstepping their boundaries, police officers may also violate the law by trying to obtain information or items without a warrant.
