n2horns Report post Posted Friday at 11:20 PM Reasonable suspicion is easier to prove vs probable cause, but as previously stated, its what you can prove in court. Like on a first date, just say no! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The judge isn’t in the field. Could be thrown out after the fact, with a good lawyer. But he still could say he has cause on the scene at his discretion, right?

But he still could say he has cause on the scene at his discretion, right? Correct. Officer can state that he had "probable cause", but it has to "make sense" to a "reasonable person" (jury). Like the example listed above, a "reasonable" person would agree that turkey feet sticking out of a backpack outside of turkey season would equal probable cause. However a person decling a consensual search does NOT meet the threshold of PC. Every judge and jury would agree to that, excluding other details. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shawn Report post Posted 12 hours ago Thats a good question. My guess is with trail cam deal they could be asking that a lot now days. I do still run a few cams in the summer for wildlife viewing Bears/lions on video. I run them in areas way back in the sticks that I will never hunt and miles away from areas I hunt. It would be possible to find a SD card or 2 in the bottom of my pack. Nothing wrong with it but probably wouldn't look good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
