Rule

The exclusionary rule does not apply in grand jury proceedings; a witness may not refuse to answer grand jury questions on the ground that they are based on illegally obtained evidence.

Significance

Declined to extend the exclusionary rule to grand juries; characterized the rule as a judicially created remedy rather than a personal constitutional right.
