You, yourself, can invite the police in to check something out. They won't need a warrant for that. Also, when the cops see/sense that someone is getting a beating they can step in without a warrant.

The law never required the cops to stand there while crimes were commited waiting for a warrant. NOT EVER!

What you have in this case is a situation where the FACTS do not match the concerns of the court.

“The law never required the cops to stand there while crimes were commited waiting for a warrant. NOT EVER!”

Apparently it does not require them to intervene, either.

Cases may be found to that effect, or my personal experience of having two officers watch from half a block away while an assault escalated. They only got into action when the threatened brick was finally actually thrown at my head.
That taught me a lot, to be sure.
