Law enforcement

Law enforcement officers use two methods to investigate possible criminal activity: reasonable suspicion and probable cause.

Reasonable suspicion means officers have a reasonable belief, sometimes called a hunch, that criminal activity may have occurred. They have no hard evidence to support their belief. Probable cause is more concrete.

Probable cause means officers are not just suspicious that criminal activity has occurred; they think it’s likely, or probable, that criminal activity has taken place. Many times reasonable suspicion may evolve into probable cause. This is not always the case, however. Initial contact between an officer and a subject often involves reasonable suspicion rather than probable cause.

Distinguish between reasonable suspicion and probable cause.

Be sure to illustrate your distinctions between these two terms with examples.
