"If they violated a statutory requirement to get the medical records, if they didn't follow black letter law, it is correct in this matter to assume that law enforcement was not to be trusted."
The point is a big IF -
There are many different statutes on FLA books regarding the release of medical records, some requiring a search warrant, some requiring NO subpoenas or warrants. It appears that the courts so far have agreed that the statute regarding the use of subpoenas does not take precedence over all the others and does not negate the laws allowing the use of search warrants.

Well, it will work itself out pretty soon I guess. My belief is that they screwed up big time by seizing the records via search warrant.
