Answer to Question 1

In Davis v. Mississippi, 394 U.S. 721 (1969), the fingerprint identification of a rape suspect was deemed inadmissible because it was the product of an illegal arrest. However, in a similar case, United States v. Crews, 445 U.S. 463 (1980), the Supreme Court decided otherwise. Crews was illegally arrested and photographed and then his photograph was shown to a witness, who identified him as the perpetrator.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE United States v. Robinson (1973 )
