Moreover, in this area we do not write on a clean slate. That rationale is fully applicable here. By placing personal effects inside a double-locked footlocker, respondents manifested an expectation that the contents would remain free from public examination. Though surely a substantial infringement of respondents' use and possession, the seizure did not diminish respondents' legitimate expectation that the footlocker's contents would remain private.

It is gratifying that the Court today unanimously rejects the Government's position. See also Terry v. Ohio, 392 U. S. 1 (1968). "The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized. 9 . -239 (1983).

Moreover, once a car has been properly impounded for any reason, the police may follow a standard procedure of inventorying its contents without any showing of probable cause. Chimel v.

U.S. 1, 19] [Footnote 4] What we do know is that the Framers were men who focused on the wrongs of that day, but who intended the Fourth Amendment to safeguard fundamental values which would far outlast the specific abuses which gave it birth. United States v. Aviles, 535 F.2d 658 (1976), cert. In this connection, the footlocker's mobility did not justify dispensing with a search warrant, because once the federal agents had seized the footlocker at the railroad station and safely transferred it to the Federal Building under their exclusive control, there was not the slightest danger that it or its contents could have been removed before a valid search warrant could be obtained. BOSEMAN: The script definitely influenced me to read up on Marshall. And certainly the footlocker would have been properly subject to search at the time if the arrest had occurred a few minutes earlier while Machado and Leary were seated on it. A search of the interior was therefore a far greater intrusion into Fourth Amendment values than the impoundment of the footlocker. [466 399 U.S. 109, 138] If that is the case, it hardly infringed respondents' privacy for the agents to re-examine the contents of the open package by brushing aside a crumpled newspaper and picking up the tube. Later, without obtaining a warrant, FBI agents obtained a projector and viewed the films. 426 (E. & A. 373 The law enforcement interests justifying the procedure were substantial; the suspicious nature of the material made it virtually certain that the substance tested was in fact contraband. 460 37:1-10) abolished common law marriages in this State; (3) under R.S. South Dakota v. Opperman, 428 U.S. 364 (1976). United States Supreme Court. The reasonableness of an official invasion of the citizen's privacy must be appraised on the basis of the facts as they existed at the time that invasion occurred. -655 (opinion of STEVENS, J.). v. (1971). They waited a short time until respondent Chadwick arrived and the footlocker had been loaded into the trunk of his car, and then made the arrest. [ Footnote 1 ] While the contents of the car could have been searched pursuant to the automobile exception, it is by no means clear that the contents of locked containers found inside a car are subject to search under this exception, any more than they would be if the police found them in any other place. To be sure, allowing impoundment of those objects pursuant to arrest, but requiring a warrant for examination of their contents, would protect that incremental privacy interest in cases where the police assessment of, probable cause is subsequently rejected by a magistrate.

The agents identified Machado and Leary and kept them under surveillance as they claimed their suitcases and the footlocker, which had been [433 U.S. 1, 4] transported by baggage cart from the train to the departure area. 453 Accordingly, we have held warrantless searches unreasonable, and therefore unconstitutional, in a variety of settings. Co. v. Goodin, 62 *510 N.J.L. legally have searched the footlocker had they seized it after Machado and Leary had driven away with it in their car DEA agents."

Congress has decided - and there is no question about its power to do so - to treat the interest in "privately" possessing cocaine as illegitimate; thus governmental conduct that can reveal whether a substance is cocaine, and no other arguably "private" fact, compromises no legitimate privacy interest. Footnote 2 United States, 72 F. Supp. Thus, silence in the historical record tells us little about the Framers' attitude toward application of the Warrant Clause to the search of respondents'. 3.

(1979); United States v. Chadwick, And certainly the footlocker would have been properly subject to search at the time if the arrest had occurred a few minutes earlier while Machado and Leary were seated on it. This Court has also consistently construed this protection as proscribing only governmental action; it is wholly inapplicable "to a search or seizure, even an unreasonable one, effected by a private individual not acting as an agent of the Government or with the participation or knowledge of any governmental official." The warrant assures the occupants that the officers have legal authority to conduct the search and defines the area to be searched and the objects to be seized. Post, at 23, nn. Footnote 18

(1970).

9, Here the search was conducted more than an hour after federal agents had gained exclusive control of the footlocker and long after respondents were securely in custody; the search therefore cannot be viewed as incidental to the arrest or as justified by any other exigency. [433 U.S. 1, 3], Martin G. Weinberg argued the cause for respondents.
