    Understanding Probable Cause

    • Probable cause pertains to the level of suspicion necessary for law enforcement to make an arrest or conduct a search.
    • It requires that officers believe it is more likely than not that a crime has occurred.
    • Officers do not need to eliminate every possibility of innocence to establish probable cause.
    • The concept emphasizes probabilities rather than certainties in determining the appropriateness of law enforcement actions.
    • This legal standard allows officers to act based on reasonable assessments rather than absolute proof.

    Probable Cause and Arrest

    • Probable cause is a necessary standard for justifying an arrest.
    • A suspect fleeing does not automatically provide sufficient grounds for an arrest.
    • Multiple factors must be considered alongside flight to establish probable cause.
    • Flight may enhance the perception of suspicious behavior but is not conclusive on its own.

    Florida Stop and Frisk Law

    • Enacted under F.S. §901.151, authorizes law enforcement to briefly detain individuals under certain conditions.
    • Applicable when an officer suspects a person has committed, is committing, or is about to commit a criminal offense or violation.
    • Detentions are meant to ascertain the identity of the individual and circumstances of their presence.
    • Temporary detainment must be reasonable and not exceed what is necessary to achieve the law's purpose.
    • Detention must occur at or near the initial encounter location, limiting the scope of the officer's actions.
    • Protects individual rights by restricting the duration and location of the stop.
