Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Inventory searches can be conducted without a warrant or probable cause, but only if they follow specific guidelines established by the Supreme Court. These guidelines include the requirement that the search be part of a standardized inventory procedure, conducted in good faith, and not as a pretext for investigating criminal activity. However, reasonable suspicion is not required for an inventory search, meaning that answer A is incorrect.
