Unwarranted (Ad-Free)

On the morning of May 20, 1957, a bomb exploded under Don King’s front porch. Police got a tip that they should search the home of someone he knew - a woman named Dollree Mapp. But when they got there, she refused to let them in. Soon, her case would go all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court. Carolyn Long’s book is Mapp v. Ohio: Guarding Against Unreasonable Searches and Seizures.
