Question

What was bill HR 666?

Answer 1

Summary: On February 8, 1995, the House of Representatives passed H.R. 666 by a vote of 289-142. This bill, along with its companion S. 54, will allow evidence seized from otherwise illegal searches to be included in a trial if the officers can show an "objectively reasonable belief" that they were acting in "good faith."

Answer 2

Evidence Obtained by Objectively Reasonable Search or Seizure.

- Evidence which is obtained as a result of a search or seizure shall

not be excluded in a proceeding in a court of the United States on

the ground that the search or seizure was in violation of the fourth

amendment to the Constitution of the United States, if the search or

seizure was carried out in circumstances justifying an objectively

reasonable belief that it was in conformity with the fourth

amendment.  The fact that evidence was obtained pursuant to and

within the scope of a warrant constitutes prima facie evidence of the

existence of such circumstances.
