TrueThe U.S. Supreme Court has established that for consent to a search by law enforcement to be valid, the individual giving consent must do so voluntarily and with sufficient mental competence to understand the nature of the act. This ensures that the consent is not coerced or given under duress, aligning with the Fourth Amendment protections against unreasonable searches and seizures.
