What is probable cause, and why is it the cornerstone of the criminal justice system?  In this episode of Law School In Plain English, we break down the concept of probable cause and its importance in ensuring that arrests and searches are lawful.  Using the O.J. Simpson case as our guide, we explore the safeguards built into the legal system to prevent abuse, the standards required to prove probable cause, and what happens when it’s challenged in court.
