Trump judicial nominee rules against 4th amendment

Trump judicial nominee John K. Bush, serving on the 6th US Circuit Court of Appeals, has issued a written ruling that effectively guts the Fourth Amendment's protections against unreasonable searches and seizures, according to Slate. In his first ruling on a constitutional case, Peffer vs. Stephens, Bush ruled that "if a suspect may have used his home computer in commission of a crime, law enforcement officials have probable cause to search his entire house."
