Payne was required as a part of his parole to reveal the passcode/password to his electronic devices. He had already told, when asked, the officer the color and location of his phone, then when asked for the passcode he denied the phone was his. That's when the officer physically forced him to unlock it with his thumb (this is the contentious part in the case).
The fourth amendment challenge against the search starts on page 10, and the fifth amendment challenge on page 21. The fact that he was a parolee substantially factors into the decision regarding the fourth amendment challenge.

- _DeadFred_ 3y agoPolice can already unlock your phone using your face/finger prints. Been that way since at least 2018. But... they can't force you to tell them what to use https://www.forbes.com/sites/thomasbrewster/2021/11/29/fbi-no-consent-required-for-forced-phone-unlocks-via-finger-or-face/?sh=555e60711e4e https://www.forbes.com/sites/thomasbrewster/2021/11/29/fbi-n...
- m463 3y agoNote there's a way to quickly turn off biometrics on an iphone. Press and hold side button + volume up (or down) button until you see a slide to power off screen. You don't have to do anything - at that point biometrics have been disabled and only a pin will unlock the phone.

- dmd 3y agoExcept that method also dials 911.
- ryanwaggoner 3y agoBoth methods can call emergency services, but it’s a setting for both (Settings > Emergency SOS)
- dmd 3y agoOh so it is! TIL, thank you!
