___________searches are therefore not searches for incriminating evidence.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An inventory search is not conducted in order to search for incriminating evidence, but rather to create a record of a person's belongings in order to protect both the police and the person being searched from later claims of lost or stolen property. Consent searches can potentially lead to the discovery of incriminating evidence if the person giving consent allows the police to search for such evidence. Custodial and private searches may or may not be conducted for incriminating evidence depending on the circumstances.
