- SCOTUS won’t review role of race in police stops
The Supreme Court refused to review a case involving the role of race in a police stop that led to the recovery of a stolen gun. A lower court found the stop unlawful, suppressed the evidence, and overturned the defendant's convictions. The Trump administration argued the ruling created race-specific standards for police conduct, but the Supreme Court denied the petition, with two justices dissenting.
