CL M4A2

What does the Supreme Court Court consider the primary purpose of the exclusionary rule? Under what circumstances will the courts not apply the exclusionary rule?

Discussion Board Guidelines:  

Discuss the purpose and reasoning behind the exclusionary rule.  Why did the Court implement this rule and why does it still exist today?  Give an example, either hypothetical or from the headlines, of a time when the courts declined to use the exclusionary rule and discuss why the court made that decision. 250 words
