MBE Trap: Indictments

MBE Trap:

If a Crim Pro question seems to be leading you in a definite direction ("huh, this one seems suspiciously easy") make sure to read carefully the call of the question. No matter how crazy the police act (no warrants, no miranda, no nothing), none of that matters if the call asks you whether the indictment should be dismissed. The Exclusionary Rule, to which all of the above will be very relevant, will keep a lot of evidence out of trial, but it won't affect whether the defendant will be indicted. Can indict a ham sandwich, and all that.
