- Title
THE CONSTITUTIONALITY OF STOP-AND-FRISK IN NEW YORK CITY.
- Abstract
The authors discuss reasonable suspicion and the constitutionality of the New York, New York Police Department's stop-and-frisk (S&F) crime prevention tactic which was approved by the U.S. Supreme Court in the 1968 case Terry v. Ohio. It states that the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York ruled in 2013 that S&F violates the Fourth and Fourteenth Amendments to the U.S. Constitution. One of the authors argues that there is no relationship between S&F and crime reduction.
