The specific case is a man charged with assault, and police suspect the man filmed the assault himself.
Earlier rulings in the lower courts were in favor of police, drawing analogy to the fact that police can force a suspect to give a blood sample. The Supreme Court, however, finds that while police have a right to investigate a suspects body, they cannot coerce the suspect to use their body to allow investigation of external objects.
