The fruit of the poisonous tree doctrine is an extension of the Exclusionary Rule that applies to indirect evidence obtained through a Fourth Amendment illegal search and seizure.
There are several exceptions to both the Exclusionary Rule and the fruit of the poisonous tree doctrine:
- Independent Source Doctrine: Evidence discovered in part from an independent, untainted source. [Murray v. United States,(1988)]
- Inevitable Discovery Rule: the evidence would have been found despite the unconstitutional action. [Nix v. William, (1984)]
- Attenuated Connection Principle: The chain of cause and effect is too attenuated to tie directly to the unconstitutional action. [Wong Sun v. United States, (1963)]
- Good Faith Rule: A search warrant not based on probable cause was issued, but acted upon in good faith by government agents. [US v. Leon, (1984).]
