Really, the way to stop that crap is to make the “searching” (ransacking) officers all return to your home, unarmed and in civilian clothes, to put everything back in order under your supervision. If I were their CO I would suspend them without pay until this was accomplished.

Just ask yourself - if it was the governor’s home, and they had reason enough for a warrant, do you think they would have treated the governor’s belongings the same way?

Even if they KNOW the person is guilty, there is no need to trash a house just to “find evidence”. In fact, such methods most likely destroy more evidence than they discover. They only do it because it displays authority and control over the owner, and because they can.

Exactly!
