Unwarranted warrants Breonna Taylor and Amir Locke By Jason Lofters

 

Most of these studies raised concerns about the speed at which war rants were reviewed and the high rates at which they were approved, questioning whether “the suppositions regarding the Fourth Amendment warrant requirement may not be borne out in practice.”31 The point of the Fourth Amendment, which often is not grasped by zealous officers, is not that it denies law enforcement the support of the usual inferences which reasonable men draw from evidence. Its protection consists in requiring that those inferences be drawn by a neutral and detached magistrate instead of being judged by the officer engaged in the often-competitive enterprise of ferreting out crime.

The stories of Breonna Taylor and Amir Locke uncover, in the direst way, the repercussions of inaccurate or unconstitutional search warrants. These stories also urge review and reconsideration of search warrants more broadly. Between 2010 and 2016, at least eighty-one civilians and thirteen officers died in “dynamic entry” raids including no-knock raids.9 More commonly, serious injuries and property damage result from searches, requiring millions of dollars of litigation costs and payouts from police departments.10 Even if no death, injury, or property damage results from a warrant, nearly all warrant-based searches impose substantial privacy costs, as officers enter homes, search and detain individuals, and examine digital items like cell phones and computers that contain troves of particularly personal information. And ignoring the individualized costs, the invasiveness of searches inevitably undermines trust in law enforcement, especially in overpoliced, marginalized communities.11

"High burn of proof, someone willing too basically follow, their anger and outlandish imagination, seeking results that are, not drawn by logic basically, just emotions, this why you should never tell, some you love them just for the ability to have sex with the person. You never know when that person, is going to catch feelings hard. Basically, you're making up making up your true feelings, how you Truly are just so you can do something to them, Jason Lofters, from my article,"
