The Fourth Amendment says: "The right of the people to be secure ... against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated ..." It took 112 years for the Supreme Court to decide that the appropriate remedy for an unreasonable search was the exclusion of the evidence from trial, and yet another 48 years to decide that the law applied to state and local police--"about as perverse and unreasonable a creation of a rule as you can imagine," in Mr. Graglia's view, "because it necessarily rewards only the guilty" and does nothing to protect the victim of a truly unreasonable search where there is no evidence to be seized. This no-holds-barred engagement is as fast-moving as they come, with substance and style in equal measure. LG: "... That's liberalism, and that's what Alan's for. The Supreme Court is influenced only in that direction." AL: "Lino, stop, please! You are telling me ... that Chief Justice Rehnquist and Nino Scalia are waiting for the latest bulletin from Alan Dershowitz to know how to vote?"
