congress and the supreme court
The 1961 U.S. Supreme Court case that made the exclusionary rule applicable to state criminal prosecutions is Mapp v. Ohio. In this landmark decision, the Court held that evidence obtained in violation of the Fourth Amendment, which protects against unreasonable searches and seizures, cannot be used in state courts. This ruling extended the exclusionary rule, previously applicable only to federal cases, to the states, reinforcing the protection of individual rights against unlawful government actions.
