In United States V

Question 20

Multiple Choice

In United States v. Place, the defendant challenged his 90 minute detention pursuant to a Terry stop at LaGuardia airport. The Court:


A) Ruled against the defendant, holding that the circumstances justified the length of the stop because one would reasonably expect delays in receiving one's luggage when arriving on an international flight at a busy airport
B) Ruled in favor of the defendant, holding that the length of detention exceeded the detention time limit previously established in United States v. Sharpe
C) Ruled against the defendant, holding that the Court has never established the length of detention permissible under a Terry stop and that Place's 90 minute detention was reasonable under the circumstances
D) Ruled in favor of the defendant, holding that the police officers' failure to act in a reasonable and diligent manner caused an unnecessary delay and the 90 minute period made the seizure unreasonable
