Answer:

D) conducting searches and seizures without a court order or valid arrest

Step-by-step explanation:

Law enforcement is required by the constitution to get a warrant from the court or have a valid arrest to conduct a search or seizure. The only time that this is not the case is if contraband is clearly visible to them without searching

Answer: D. conducting searches and seizures without a court order or valid arrest

Explanation: In order to search or seize a place or person, law enforcement officers must have a search warrent issued by a judge. Any evidence found in an illegal search cannot be used in a court of law.
