The People of the State of New York, Respondent v. Rawle McIntosh, Appellant

Summary

The Court held that the police officers’ demand that all passengers on a bus produce identification and tickets, based solely on the bus’s origin from New York City, lacked an objective, credible reason under the De Bour/Hollman framework, rendering the subsequent consent search unlawful; therefore the evidence was suppressed and the indictment dismissed.
