Supreme Court Approves Search Warrants Issued by Dogs

“Today the U.S. Supreme Court unanimously ruled that ‘a court can presume’ an alert by a drug-sniffing dog provides probable cause for a search ‘if a bona fide organization has certified a dog after testing his reliability in a controlled setting’ or ‘if the dog has recently and successfully completed a training program that evaluated his proficiency in locating drugs.’ The justices overturned a 2011 decision in which the Florida Supreme Court said police must do more than assert that a dog has been properly trained.”
