In the Field and Police Training (FTO and PTO) section of the police academy, much time is spent on thoroughly understanding the 4th, 5th, 6th, 8th, and 14th Amendments. Explain why and include one example of an amendment’s application in police officers’ daily duties.

Why give one when I can give all of them?

4th amendment - A police officer can't just barge into any Tom, d ! c k, or Harry's house.

5th - Telling someone to speak in a confession scene is forbidden and will get your police officer privileges suspended.

6th - You can't just arrest any criminal and throw them in jail, you must give them a fair/speedy trail should they ask for it.

8th - This is a good example of the George Floyd incident. You can't give someone a cruel and unusual punishment regardless if they are guilty or not.

14th - You can't just leave one law out or make it any less obsolete than the others.
