The police didn’t recieve the initial call, a domestic abuse hotline did. They relayed the notes they took to the police. The police felt they had to act, and by any ‘reasonable’ standard under current law they were right.

So the intial warrant meets the standard. The second one may not. And I stress MAY, because I haven’t seen what the investigators saw. But what the press was told by the ‘authorities’ and what is being introduced in court seem to be worlds apart.

Doesn't matter. Law enforcement could still trace the call.

So, if I say called some hotline from a payphone and said that something illegal was happening at your house, that would be justification for sending hundreds of armed agents on a raid? They could then seize your property and children with no further evidence?
