What makes you think the lady didn't tell them he wasn't there? I spent about a half hour once telling two cops the man they were looking for wasn't in my house and that I didn't know him, I finally got tired of their crap and told them to go get a warrent if they were so sure he was in my house, they left and didn't come back.
They tried to enter without my permission but I stood fast and wouldn't let them. I was lucky the guy they were looking for was only wanted on traffic warrent. Cops abuse their power, daily and they are becoming famous for getting the wrong house. Not all cops but enough of them that it is a real and growing problem in the US. Swat teams are BS. Police got along just fine without them for many, many years. We don't need para-military cops.

I know of several cops in the area. Most of them won’t stop to say hi, wave or even acknowledge your existence. The huge chip on their shoulder must make them too good to converse with the commoners.
