Tone of closing section
Someone should probably address the last section, which reads exactly like it was cut and pasted from a law student's class outline, shorthand and all.

Agreement with Probable cause article
In Probable cause it says,
 * The Supreme Court decision Illinois v. Gates lowered the threshold of probable cause by ruling that a "substantial chance" or "fair probability" of criminal activity could establish probable cause. A better-than-even chance is not required.

This article is Illinois v. Gates and it doesn't say anything about a better-than-even chance being required or not. These two articles should be brought into agreement with both the decision and each other. —Anomalocaris (talk) 23:32, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
