Last Thursday I was with some friends and we were caught trying to smuggle beer into my dorm. The "probable cause" was the fact that we were attempting to enter through the back door, and we were carrying a large duffle bag. I am prepared to challenge my case with Fourth Ammendment cases, such as Marshall v. Barlow and U.S. v. Jeffers, etc. Upon the staff member who asked me to open the bag, I refused. The bag was opened without any warrent. My main question is, does a public college count as a "public school" as in New Jersey v. T.L.O.?
If the answer to this is yes, what other defense could I attempt? My case is being heard on Wednesday @ 9, so PLEASE help me out before then!
