28、say,rifling through a suspects purse.The court has ruled that police dont violate the Fourth Amendment when they sift through the wallet or pocketbook of an arrestee without a warrant.But exploring ones smart phone is more like entering his or her home.A smart phone may contain an arrestees reading
