Answer to Question 1

Consent searches do not require probable cause, reasonable suspicion, or an articulable justification. Demonstration of voluntary nature of the private citizen is all that is required. All evidence found during a consented search is still bound by the tenets contained in the Fourth Amendment. The parameters in which the consented search are limited to the duration of the original assent. Determination of voluntariness is accomplished through a careful consideration of the totality of circumstances. Factors that less the voluntary consent include: age, low level of education, low intelligence, lack of advice of constitutional rights, length of detention, repeated and prolonged nature of questioning, and the use of physical punishment.
