- Disregarding his Fifth Amendment rights, the Florida Court of Appeals has ordered a male suspect to surrender his iphone 5 passcode to police.The decision runs counter to a Virginia court ruling in a separate case that stipulates suspects can be required to unlock a phone with their fingerprint, but can't be forced to reveal their passcode as this could possibly violate Fifth Amendment rights against self-incrimination.Europe, are you ready?

Stahl, on the same issue.Stahl holds that the government can force an iphone user to hand over the passcode to unlock the phone so long as the government can show that the user knows the passcode.

Florida appeals court orders man to surrender iPhone passcode


Florida appeals court orders man to surrender iPhone passcode
- A Florida man accused of voyeurism can be forced to share the passcode of his iphone 5, the state's Second District Court of Appeals ruled this week, potentially challenging established interpretations of the Fifth Amendment.The suspect, Aaron Stahl, originally gave verbal consent for police to search his iPhone for photos, but withdrew it before sharing his passcode, Courthouse News said.Police obtained a warrant for the phone, but were still unable to access its contents —since iOS 8, the encryption on iPhones makes it virtually impossible to extract data without a passcode or Touch ID, especially since a device can be set to auto-erase after 10 failed passcode attempts.In some other U.S. cases police have been able to compel people to supply a Touch ID unlock, but the iPhone 5 lacks the appropriate sensor, and regardless there's only a limited window in which iOS will accept Touch ID input without re-entering a passcode.A trial judge initially denied a state motion that would force Stahl to surrender his passcode, saying it would violate Fifth Amendment protections against self-incriminating testimony.
