  1. No evidence collected without a warrant is admissible unless an exception applies. Officers searched without a warrant and no exception applies. What follows?

    Answer: The evidence is inadmissible

    With no warrant and no applicable exception, the stated rule makes the evidence inadmissible.

  2. All suspects in custody must be read their Miranda rights before questioning. Suspect Delgado is in custody and officers want to question him. What must happen first?

    Answer: Officers must read Delgado his Miranda rights before questioning

    The rule requires Miranda rights before questioning any suspect in custody, so this must occur first.

  3. If two or more officers witness an incident, a joint report is required. Only Officer Thompson witnessed the incident. What can be concluded?

    Answer: A joint report is not required under this rule

    The rule triggers only when two or more officers witness the incident; one officer does not meet that condition.

  4. Whenever a juvenile is arrested, a parent or guardian must be notified within two hours. A juvenile named Kai is arrested at 3:00 PM. When must notification occur?

    Answer: By 5:00 PM

    Two hours after 3:00 PM is 5:00 PM, which is the notification deadline.

  5. All use-of-force incidents must be reported to a supervisor within one hour. Officer Reyes used force at 10:45 AM and reported it at 11:50 AM. What is true?

    Answer: Reyes did not comply because more than one hour passed

    10:45 AM plus one hour is 11:45 AM; reporting at 11:50 AM exceeds the one-hour window.

  6. Every officer who completes advanced defensive tactics training is eligible for K-9 unit assignment. Officer Lund has not completed advanced defensive tactics training. What follows?

    Answer: Officer Lund is not eligible for K-9 assignment under this rule

    The rule establishes training completion as the eligibility condition; without it, Lund is not eligible under this rule.

  7. If a crime scene has more than five pieces of physical evidence, a forensic specialist must be called. The scene has three shell casings, two footprints, and one fingerprint. Must a forensic specialist be called?

    Answer: Yes, because there are six total pieces of evidence

    Three casings, two footprints, and one fingerprint total six pieces, which exceeds the threshold of more than five.
