Does the exclusionary rule apply to a warrantless entry?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Jenks, C088755 (Cal. App. 2020):
Since the Attorney General does not carry the burden of finding legal justification for the warrantless entry, the fruits of that entry generally must be suppressed. (Wong Sun v. United States (1963) 371 U.S. 471, 487-488 [9 L.Ed.2d 441, 455].) The Attorney General argues suppression is inappropriate here because the exclusionary rule's deterrent is ineffective where the police engage in nonculpable conduct. Not so.
