Police assigned to an airport learned that Andrew Sokolow, had paid 2,100 for tickets from a roll of 20 bills, had just made a round-trip flight from Honolulu to Miami, stayed in Miami less than 48 hours with no checked luggage, looked nervous, and had used a name that did not match the name under which his telephone number was listed. The officers stopped the man and detained him long enough to let a trained dog sniff his luggage. The dog alerted and during the search, they found several pounds of cocaine in his shoulder bag.
The police used a drug courier profile in this case. How did the U.S. Supreme Court rule?
