Answer to Question 1

The case of Illinois v. Gates has changed the interpretation of the Aguillar twopronged test in that the separate and independent interpretation of the two prongs
has been replaced by the totality of circumstances interpretation, which gives
greater latitude in determining the reliability of the information provided by
informants.

Answer to Question 2

The court has made changes in the interpretation of the term man of reasonable
caution by allowing officers to draw reasonable inferences from these facts in light
of their knowledge of the area and their prior experience. I agree with these
changes because it allows officers with considerable experience to use that
experience in apprehending wrongdoers.
