"On Monday, the California Supreme Court ruled that police in that state can 
search the contents of an arrested person's cell phone.

"Citing U.S. Supreme Court precedents, the ruling contends that The loss of 
privacy upon arrest extends beyond the arrestee's body to include 'personal 
property ... immediately associated with the person of the arrestee' at the time of 
arrest."
