Tone of closing section
[edit]Someone should probably address the last section, which reads exactly like it was cut and pasted from a law student's class outline, shorthand and all.
Agreement with Probable cause article
[edit]In Probable cause#Related cases it says,
- The Supreme Court decision Illinois v. Gates 462 U.S. 213 (1983)[1] lowered the threshold of probable cause by ruling that a "substantial chance" or "fair probability" of criminal activity could establish probable cause. A better-than-even chance is not required.
This article is Illinois v. Gates and it doesn't say anything about a better-than-even chance being required or not. These two articles should be brought into agreement with both the decision and each other. —Anomalocaris (talk) 23:32, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
