Supreme Court sends 'geofence warrant' case back to lower court
The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that individuals have a reasonable expectation of privacy regarding their cellphone location data, vacating a lower court's ruling against Okello Chatrie in a Virginia bank robbery case. The decision deemed law enforcement's use of a geofence warrant to identify Chatrie a search under the Fourth Amendment.
