Explicación
## Step 1The problem presents a case, Mapp v. Ohio (1966), where police officers forcibly entered a house without a warrant. The house owner, Dollree Mapp, was arrested for having illegal photographs. She appealed to the Supreme Court, arguing that her constitutional liberties had been violated.## Step 2The Supreme Court ruled in favor of Mapp, which means that the court found her argument valid and agreed with her claim that her constitutional liberties had been violated.## Step 3The question asks us to determine which constitutional right was expanded as a result of this Supreme Court decision. The options provided are:- Constitutional guarantees of due process in criminal trials were increased.- Constitutional protections against unlawful searches and seizures were expanded.- Constitutional assurances of the right to an attorney were expanded.- Constitutional safeguards against excessive bail and fines were increased.## Step 4Given the facts of the case, the Supreme Court's decision would have expanded the constitutional protections against unlawful searches and seizures. This is because the case involved a violation of the Fourth Amendment, which protects against unreasonable searches and seizures.
