Think about that.
If the original judge's ruling stood every drug dealer, thief or white collar criminal served with a legal search warrant could prevent law enforcement from examining what they seized during the search.
The original order installing the special master was beyond radical.
No - that’s not the argument.
The reason for the appointment of the special observer was that the FBI took far more than they were allowed to under the warrant and the observer was filtering things out that they were not supposed to take.
These judges just ruled that id didn’t matter what the warrant said, the government could take whatever they want because “there’s no law saying otherwise” (y’know, except for the fact that the warrant limited what they could search and take)
That’s an outright violation of the 4th amendment and it would apply to drug dealers and white collar criminals too.
