Question 2

In South Dakota v. Opperman (1976), the police conducted an inventory search in which they searched Opperman's car after towing it to an impound lot because it was parked illegally. They found marijuana during a search of the glove compartment. SCOTUS decided that the search of the glove compartment:
 
  a. violated the U.S. Constitution, because it did not use the least intrusive means to secure the drugs.
 b. did not violate the U.S. Constitution, because it was a legitimate inventory search.
 c. violated the U.S. Constitution, because it was conducted on a suspicion that drugs were in Opperman's glove compartment.
  d. did not violate the U.S. Constitution, because drugs were discovered in the glove compartment.
