The police found  papers which were used to incriminate him of transporting lottery tickets in the mail. This was all done with out permission or a search warrant.  Weeks petitioned the police to return his personal papers. The evidence was obtained illegally, so he was acquitted. ]]> 2018-12-04 14:44:06 UTC https://padlet.com/ella_drzadinski/s00el1ksz2bi/wish/310912358 elena_gonzalezclark https://padlet.com/ella_drzadinski/s00el1ksz2bi/wish/311798199 William R. Day was a judge involved with the Weeks vs. United States case. He allowed Weeks' possessions to be returned to him, and the court decided that it was in violation of the 4th amendment. ]]> 2018-12-06 14:01:44 UTC https://padlet.com/ella_drzadinski/s00el1ksz2bi/wish/311798199 ella_drzadinski https://padlet.com/ella_drzadinski/s00el1ksz2bi/wish/311798487 The case was taken to the supreme court, where it was unanimously decided the the evidence was obtained illegally because there was no warrant. The evidence from Mr. Weeks house should not have been used in the case  because of his 4th amendment rights.  This case was the first time the Exclusionary Rule was used. This rule states that any evidence gathered illegally cannot be used in a trial.  ]]> 2018-12-06 14:02:11 UTC https://padlet.com/ella_drzadinski/s00el1ksz2bi/wish/311798487 ella_drzadinski https://padlet.com/ella_drzadinski/s00el1ksz2bi/wish/311806302 The exclusionary rule was first used in Weeks trial. The police violated the woman's rights in the picture, just as they did Mr. Weeks. But, her lawyer is telling her this is a good thing because of the rule. This was also a good thing for Weeks because he got acquitted due to the fact that the police violated his fourth amendment rights. ]]> 2018-12-06 14:15:02 UTC https://padlet.com/ella_drzadinski/s00el1ksz2bi/wish/311806302 elena_gonzalezclark https://padlet.com/ella_drzadinski/s00el1ksz2bi/wish/311807217 The police entered Weeks' home without permission using a hidden key that Weeks neighbor told them about. This demonstrates that the fourth amendment was violated because Weeks never gave permission, his neighbor just told the police about the key. ]]> 2018-12-06 14:16:20 UTC https://padlet.com/ella_drzadinski/s00el1ksz2bi/wish/311807217 ella_drzadinski https://padlet.com/ella_drzadinski/s00el1ksz2bi/wish/311810483 https://caselaw.findlaw.com/us-supreme-court/232/383.html]]> 2018-12-06 14:21:16 UTC https://padlet.com/ella_drzadinski/s00el1ksz2bi/wish/311810483 elena_gonzalezclark https://padlet.com/ella_drzadinski/s00el1ksz2bi/wish/311811308 Weeks vs. United states, Oyez -https://www.oyez.org/cases/1900-1940/232us383
