An informant said that Spruill's sixth-floor Harlem apartment was being used by an armed drug dealer to stash cocaine and heroin, police officials said. If judges are willing to issue warrants on the basis of hearsay which is not given (by the original speaker) under oath or affirmation, what is the point of the "oath or affirmation" requirement in the Constitution?
