4th Amendment Current Event

The current event I found concerns the 4th Amendment and is from Newser.com. The article is about a Supreme Court ruling on January 23, 2012. The Court ruled that the FBI, or any police entity, does not have the right to place a GPS tracker on any of a suspect's belongings without a warrant. The opposing side had been depending heavily on a 1983 ruling that the FBI could place a tracker on their car. The Supreme Court disregarded this and ruled in their own opinion. I agree with the Court and it shouldn't be that much of a setback for the FBI to obtain a single warrant.
