The major problem with this bill is that it did not distinguish between searching the parolees property and the property of the one the parolee lives with. If you let a parolee live with you, they would be free to search your home with no warrant.
Not sure why they left it that way because the bill did distinguish between the parolees vehicle and a vehicle that the parolee only borrowed or rode in.
The Governor was right.
I can see your point and it is quite reasonable.
However...that would make it very easy for the parolee to engage in criminal activity by hiding behind someone who cannot be searched. It is not unreasonable to say that those who agree to live with parolees have to live under similar restrictions.
Sanford (who shouldn’t still be governor, BTW) likely made the wisest decision here, but if he had signed the law, there wouldn’t be a violation of Constitutional principles as parole and probation are privileges.
