The correct response is:

search warrants to prevent illegal searches and seizures

Mapp v. Ohio (1961) established that evidence obtained in violation of the Fourth Amendment, which protects against unreasonable searches and seizures, cannot be used in state courts. This decision extended the exclusionary rule, which had previously only applied to federal courts, to state courts, thereby strengthening the protections for individuals accused of crimes.
