Whren v. United States
5-4
Introduction
5 to 4 is a podcast about how much the Supreme Court sucks. In this case, plainclothes vice cops were patrolling an area in Washington, D.C., that they believed had a high degree of drug activity. When an SUV they were watching made a turn without signaling, the officers pursued it and found crack cocaine.

But the Supreme Court disagreed, opening a now heavily traffic drought for police using a minor traffic violation to go fishing for other crimes.
