On the recordFebruary 7, 1995
Mr. Chairman, to the gentleman from Illinois [Mr. Hyde], our chairman, I would have him remember that the exclusionary rule was put in place to make sure that the police behave rather than allowing 'anything goes,' and then we have years later a court decision that finds out that they did not conduct themselves in the manner that they should. That is the importance of the exclusionary rule. Mr. Chairman, to my friend from Arizona who said we want an objectively reasonable standard, but not the police officer's objectively reasonable standard. We want the magistrate's objectively reasonable standard at the front end. We do not want policemen applying court doctrine unilaterally.
