and Euclid Ave. which invoked a suspicious sensation. Later recognized as John W. Terry and Richard Chilton, the two men paced themselves simultaneously past various stores, looking inside the windows. Terry and Chilton exercised this routine about 12 times while Officer McFadden observed them from 300 to 400 feet away in the entrance of another store. At one point during their suspicious routine, there was a third man involved. This third man approached Terry and Chilton and had a brief conversation with them, before heading west on Euclid Ave. After the third man, later indentified as Katz, walked away, the two men engaged in their routine once again for another 10-12 more minutes before finally following the same path as the third man, Katz.
What caught the detective’s eye was that the two men appeared to be walking in front of a store and each would stop and look into the window. The men then would meet back up and appear to be having a conversation about what they had observed. This went on for about ten minutes and then the two joined a third man who was later identified as a gentleman with the last name Katz. This suspicious behavior led this seasoned detective to believe the three were probably casing the store and planned to rob it. Based on his experience and knowledge the detective felt he had enough reasonable suspicion to confront the men and determine what their business was in the area.

Search Incident to a Lawful Arrest: The rationale behind this exception is that a person who has been arrested may destroy evidence or use some type of concealed weapon against the arresting officer. The Supreme Court of the United States articulated this rule in Chimel v. California, 395 U.S. 752 (1969). The Court held it was reasonable for law enforcement to search an arrestee for evidence or weapons. In order for a search incident to arrest to be lawful, the arrest itself must be lawful. This means if a person is arrested without a warrant or without probable cause and incriminating evidence is discovered after the arrest, that evidence cannot be used against the arrestee.

Branch Scenario: Unit 2 Brytnei Morris January 21st, 2014 CJ340: Applied Criminal Justice Ethics Branch Scenario: Unit 2 For this week’s Branch Scenario provided in Unit 1, we encountered a situation which occurs pretty often within the police department. The scenario starts off with myself beginning a new position granted to me as a narcotics detective assigned to a precinct with a rampant drug problem. At the first briefing performed, the squad commander insists that the unit’s “extraordinary” tactics were helping in the declining rate of street crimes and homicides. After the briefing, I ask my partner about the previous remark made about the new tactics used aiding in the decreased rates. My partner explains that occasionally, the unit must plant evidence to arrest top-level dealers and use force to gain information from suspects.
