DWI Suspects’ Names On Twitter »
The social networking site Twitter will now be used to stop dui, as a Montgomery County law enforcement agency plans to post the names of those arrested for DWI on the site.
According to the Chief prosecutor Warren Diepraam, by tweeting the names of DWI suspects, who have been charged in cases considered strong enough to prosecute, the threat of humiliation would lead less people to drink and drive.
Diepraam said "We’ve kind of simplified it by using Twitter, putting that information that’s already out there as a public record, putting it on Twitter so that people could follow who’s been arrested" .

Understanding Search and Seizure Law: What if a Search Violates the Fourth Amendment? »
Here I am explaining you that in case if the search violates the fourth amendment than what could happen.
The Exclusionary Rule.
If, upon review, it has been found by the court that an unreasonable search has been occurred, then any evidence seized as a result of that search could not be allowed by the court to use as direct evidence against the defendant in a criminal prosecution, state or federal. This rule has been established by the U.S. Supreme Court in 1961and it has come to be known as the “exclusionary rule.”

After this day, the exclusionary rule has been criticized by many commentators on the basis that it unfairly lets the criminal go free just because the constable has erred. But the supporter of the rule argued that excluding illegally seized evidence is necessary to restrict police from conducting illegal searches. According to this deterrence argument, if the resulting evidence can’t be used to convict the defendant then the improper searches won’t be conducted by police.
