[3-3-2-4] Answer for Quiz

In the case similar to the Quiz, the Supreme Court found that given the totality of the circumstances, there was probable cause to issue the warrant.

The validity of a warrant based on an informant’s tip is determined by a “totality of the circumstances” test.

It is not always essential that the reliability and credibility of the informant is established.

All that is required of an affidavit based in part on an informant’s tip is that all the allegations in the affidavit, taken together, permit the magistrate to make a common sense evaluation of probable cause.
