I recently rewatched Beverly Hills Cop (1984), the Eddie Murphy movie, which came out when I was in junior high school. It dawned on me that the movie is not just a vehicle for Eddie Murphy's comic talents. It is that, to be clear; Murphy is fantastic in the movie. But there's a more important legal angle: Beverly Hills Cop is a Fourth Amendment movie.
There are lots of Fourth Amendment issues in the movie. But the key scene, at the warehouse, could be an exam question.
Recall the facts.
