Elements of reasonable suspicion & probably cause were settled by the Supreme Court in 1968. This is standard for all police work since that time and is taught in law enforcement academies. The case was Terry vs. Ohio. Below is a quick link to a
summary document. It's nothing new. Information is essential before you sound off. Knowledge is gold. http://www.fas.org/sgp/crs/intel/m013006.pdf[1]
