Question

Jim was driving home one night after his basketball game when an officer pulled him over. The officer looked long and hard inside his car, then asked if Jim would open up his trunk. Jim said, “Do you have a warrant?” and the officer said, “no.” Because of this, Jim told that officer that he would feel more comfortable if he did not search his trunk. Was Jim correct? Why or why not?

Answer 1

I believe Jim was correct. He has the right to deny a search if there is no warrant. If the cop truly thinks there is something there he could get a warrant

Answer 2

I think it’s the wrong one I’m really not sure
