Judge reaffirms ‘Constitution-free zones’ near border

“A federal judge who endorsed ‘suspicion-less’ searches of laptops, cameras and cell phones at the border has set up a possible Supreme Court showdown challenging what critics call ‘Constitution-free zones’ and the Obama administration’s dragnet approach to national security.  A decision by Judge Edward Korman upholding the federal government’s right to search travelers’ electronic devices at or near the border conflicts with a similar ruling in California. That ruling requires a ‘reasonable suspicion’ of criminal activity before agents can confiscate and examine personal photos, laptops and files. Korman’s ruling does not.”
