This reminds me of a case study we did in my business law class. Basically, the police came with a warrant at 3 in the morning and found drugs in the guys house. The guy got arrested but he appealed. He won. I don't remember all the details but it was something about the warrant stating that it should be within reasonable hours or something, and the guys claimed that 3 a.m. was not a reasonabe time. The judge agreed, adding that the drugs would still have been there in the morning so the police could have came then.

Wow, that was scary. Glad it worked out ok.

I had an interesting break in story. Many years ago, not long after my wife and I bought our house, (pre-kids, pre-dogs)we were asleep in the master bedroom with our noisy room a/c on full blast, when a buddy of mine enroute to his parents house ran out of gas a bout a mile from our house around 3 am.

He rang the doorbell several times, and we slept thru it. He then broke into our garage, got out a ladder, and used it to climb into one of our 2nd floor guest room windows that was open . After walking downstairs to the bar and helping himself a beer, he came back upstairs, turned on the hall lights, and politely knocked on our bedroom door. My wife poked me hard and whispered "it's a burglar". As I woke, I looked at the door, noticing the lights were on from underneath the bottom of the door, when suddenly through the door came a loud ,beer-fueled window rattling belch. I then said, "What burglar turns on the lights and knocks? When I opened the bedroom door there was my buddy grinning from ear to ear, (proud of his accomplishment), handing me a beer.

Needless to say, we've since improved the security, I now have a lock on the beer fridge (ahem).
Nice to see you have your priorities in order Bubba

yay for bad info I guess....they need to be updating their ****!

that's retarded to not have checked the current address for new residents within like two weeks prior before getting a warrant...lazy agents.
Yup, thats All i was thinking reading this...

Its all well and good to have an address, but how about actually checking to see if some one else has moved in....

Werd . I have no problem with people making mistakes but the Police never own up to their mistakes. They are just like sorry to disturb you and they go about their business. You are left standing there like ? And then there is nothing they do to even show they are sorry. Police are on a serious power trip and that's why I dislike them.

Thats another cop out, chopp.

With increased ability comes increased responsibility. You have to admit it really was dumb considering she had nothng to do with any of this crap. We dont live in France, I dont see why the people in this country should be treated like they are.
