Question 9

The 4th Amendment protects against unreasonable searches and seizures. Since the police searched Jordan without evidence of a crime, this amendment is violated.

The 4th Amendment prohibits unreasonable searches and seizures; the police searched Jordan without just cause (no evidence of a crime).

The 8th Amendment prohibits cruel and unusual punishments. A life sentence for vandalizing public property is disproportionate and thus a violation of this amendment.
