This Fourth Amendment Search and Seizure protection originally applied only to federal cases because the Supreme Court hadn't incorporated much of the Bill of Rights to the States in 1914.
In Wolf v. Colorado, 338 US 25 (1949) the Supreme Court decided the exclusionary rule didn't apply to the states.
The Warren Court reversed this stance in Mapp v. Ohio,367 US 643 (1961), holding "All evidence obtained by searches and seizures in violation of the Federal Constitution is inadmissible in a criminal trial in a state court."
The decision in Mapp applied the Exclusionary Rule developed from Weeks to the states via the Fourteenth Amendment Due Process Clause.

∙ 7y agoThe exclusionary rule states that evidence collected or analyzed in violation of the defendant constitutional rights is inadmissible for criminal prosecution in court. It is grounded in the 4th and 5th amendments. Most states also have their own exclusionary remedies for illegally obtained evidence under state constitutions and or statutes. Court cases since 1783 have addressed the rule. In 1914 Weeks v United States used the 4th amendment to announce a strong version of the exclusionary rule. It wasn't until Mapp v Ohio in 1961 that it was held to be binding on the states through the 14th amendment which guarantees due process. Up until Mapp the states rejected the exclusionary rule, but with Mapp this could no longer be true.
