Re: exclusionary rule
The exclusionary rule is the rule that evidence obtained illegally by police cannot be used against a defendant. It is used to exclude evidence obtained by illegal searches and statements obtained without "Miranda" warnings.

A rule of evidence that is used to exclude evidence that is deemed to have been obtained by law enforcement illegally or in violation of 4th, 5th, or 6th Amendment rights. This rule is used in an effort to make law enforcement abide by our Constitutional safeguards.
