Rest in Peace Dollree Mapp
 

Mapp's Supreme Court case, Mapp v. Ohio, is a staple of law school textbooks and considered a milestone case on the Fourth Amendment, which requires law enforcement officers to get a warrant before conducting a search. The case curbed the power of police by saying evidence obtained by illegal searches and seizures could not be used in state court.

Rest in Peace and thank you for standing up and being counted.

I remember studying that case in Constitutional law. My professor made us reevaluate and reargue the case.
