The odd thing in this case is that they were already inside the house on a matter unrelated to the drugs. A quantity of marijuana was in plain view. That was sufficient for an arrest. I’m not sure on the need to search the rest of the premises. Why was that necessary?

They were effectively on an Easter egg hunt at that point.Looking for something of value to seize?

Why not call a judge and get a warrant to search based on the Pot in plain view? Where’s the fire?

I’m no expert but I think once they enter a house and find probable cause of a crime (blood)they are duty bound to search the house thoroughly. IF someone were tied and gagged and injured in another room, and the cops ignored that room, the town the cops worked for would have been sued for millions.
