Questions presented
-
Does the community care exception to the fourth amendment allow police officers to remain in a person’s home when they have determined that there is no longer an imminent threat to the life of others in order to investigate charges of domestic violence when police officers do not have reasonable suspicion that there is a clear and present danger afoot?
-
Does due process allow for a determination of premeditation when the evidence shows that the defendant has less than two seconds to think and when those two seconds or less of thought are the result of extreme pressure by police officers?
