Granted permission by a judge after a search warrant was requested. Obviously Miss Damond didn’t give permission and I am pretty sure her fiencee wasn’t at her house.
See:

and the search warrant:

Ping. We should not forget about what happened to Justine just because something else happened in Charlottesville, VA.

The courts have ruled that public employees have a property right to the job after they pass probation. They can be dismissed for cause after due process. If you stop pay at the initial onslaught of an incident, the cop is not getting due process because you’re taking his property without conducting an investigation, serving him notice, and giving him the right to appeal. This is in all administrative proceeding, not court.
If they think it’s not safe for him to be at work, they put him on administrative leave with pay until they complete the investigation. Administrative action can be based on a preponderance of evidence (more likely than not) rather than beyond a reasonable doubt. So a cop or other employee can be fired before any trial action based upon and administrative investigation .
If a cop was in jail without bail, he could be fired for AWOL, after a prescribed number of days not showing up for work, say 5. He would be paid for the 5 days until the AWIOL takes effect.
Don’t hate the messenger.
