Supreme Court to view scope of police searches

June 16, 2004/ Tron Nick

The Supreme Court agreed Monday to consider how far police can go in searching homes and questioning occupants without violating their constitutional rights. Justices will review the case of two Simi Valley officers ordered to pay $60,000 to Iris Mena, who awoke at dawn in 1998 to find an officer in a ski mask pointing a submachine gun at her head. SWAT team members kept Mena in handcuffs and questioned her for three hours while the home was searched. [more]
