[Dead Corpse]

So cops never manufacture or plant evidence and get away with it? Something like this won't make it easier to do?

I'm just tossing ideas around here trying to shake this one out a bit. See what other ramifications such a ruling could possibly have.

Sure they do. It's a crime.

Something like this won't make it easier to do?

I don't see any way that this facilitates that. He wrote and delivered the check to buy the kiddie porn. The crime was already committed. They were merely waiting for additional evidence to arrive in the mail.

And his argument didn't even involve any of that. It was some arcane argument that he needed to be notified in writing of triggering actions before the search warrant could be executed.

Apparently, that is something that is in the 9th circuit's copy of the constitution, but only theirs.
