3. Definition of Probable Cause Probable cause" means that the officer must possess sufficiently trustworthy facts to believe that a crime has been committed. In some cases, an officer may need only a reasonable suspicion of criminal activity to conduct a limited search (Terry Stop). Reasonable suspicion means that the officer has sufficient knowledge to believe that criminal activity is at hand. This level of knowledge is less than that of probable cause, so reasonable suspicion is usually used to justify a brief frisk in a public area or a traffic stop at roadside. To possess either probable cause or reasonable suspicion, an officer must be able to cite specific articulable facts to warrant the intrusion. Items related to suspected criminal activity found in a search may be taken, or seized, by the officer. And if I make contact with a subject and don’t have any of those articulable facts to justify the Terry Stop, then it is merely a social contact and the subject is free to leave at any time and not answer any of my questions. Officers have had issues with these social contacts when their actions have constituted a seizure of the person, such as the use of overhead lights making the subject feel they were not free to leave. –OFFICER COONEY 10/1/20163
