The Counterfeit Constitution I: The Untold History Of The Law Of Search And Seizure
$18.17
An investigative history of Fourth Amendment law in the United States during the 20th century, contending that two landmark Supreme Court cases -- Weeks v. United States, and Mapp v. Ohio -- were not true cases in controversy, but manufactured test cases contrived by lawyers acting in collusion. The book is a challenge to the exclusionary rule commonly applied in criminal courts today, which requires that "tainted" evidence not be used to establish guilt, by showing that this rule is itself of tainted origin -- a product of fraudulent cases and not of any good-faith reading of the Constitution. Part of a two-volume set. The companion volume, "The Counterfeit Constitution II: How Voluntary Confessions Became Inadmissible Evidence," is an investigative history of Fifth Amendment law, tracing a similar pattern of colluded cases.
