Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When Officer Jones obtains consent to search from Barney, the search must stay within its allowable scope. This means that Jones cannot search areas or items that are not covered by Barney's consent or that are not reasonably related to the purpose of the search. Therefore, option C is the correct choice. Option A is incorrect because it is too restrictive - Officer Jones may be able to search other areas besides the bedroom with Barney's consent. Option B is incorrect because it does not provide any specific guidance on the scope of the search. Option D is incorrect because there are always some restrictions on a search, even if consent is given.
