Oh, for heaven’s sake.
I can’t believe this has to be said repeatedly on the same thread.
The original search warrant named who/what was being searched for on the ranch property.
They saw evidence of statutory rape. They obtained a second warrant. (If you don’t understand, look up the term “In plain sight”.)
Based on the information and evidence recovered using that warrant, a judge signed a letter of removal, which isn’t even a necessary thing, from what I have read. They went OVER what they had to do.
(ibidinum)
Which house was named in the original warrant?
What family?
What street address?
How did it expand to an entire town?
What specific charges were made against Joe Blow, the neighbor of the original family under suspiscion, that justified a warrant to search his house, and sieze his kids?
You can drive a military convoy through the legal holes in this.
