Just for understanding searches since some people here think Law enforcement can search anything they want anytime they want...

An Oregon case said:

You can’t search a vehicle under the auto exception when it is parked, immmobile and unoccupied at the time the police encounter it during a crime.

I don’t know what the deal is in the Sandy Hook State but you can’t just pretend that the cops can search anything without knowing the State Law.

Here is another example for those that think cops can search anywhere anytime.

There is a case where a guy shot a cop and killed him in his apartment in Arizona.

Cops spent 4 days in the apartment on a warrantless search. They claimed the murder scene exemption.

Court threw out the evidence.

So just don’t assume that the cops can legally search a car just because you think they can.
