The Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution guarantees protection from unreasonable searches and seizures. It is the duty of law enforcement officers to conduct legal searches and seizures. An illegal search or seizure violates a person’s rights and may lead to adverse consequences for the officer who engaged in the illegality. Such consequences may include a criminal or civil case brought against the officer, suppression of evidence recovered from the suspect, and department discipline. This course meets Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (TCOLE) requirements #2108For More information click here
