Mapp v. Ohio · ¶41

“The federal courts themselves have operated under the exclusionary rule of Weeks for almost half a century; yet it has not been suggested. either that the Federal Bureau of Investigation has thereby been rendered ineffective, or that the administration of criminal justice in the federal courts has thereby been disrupted. Moreover, the experience of the states is impressive.... The movement towards the rule of exclusion has been halting but seemingly inexorable.” Id., at 218-219.
