Thursday they released hundreds of pages of search warrant documents, with a few lines redacted, but giving a much clearer picture of what led authorities to the Guerena home.

Anyone have a link to the warrant?
Sounds like this guy could have chosen better family members and friends, but not everybody is lucky.
IN this area the drug dealers have REALLY NICE CARS,the poor working slobs have the junky cars.
Just to be clear, this Sheriff didn’t have a choice. The warrant was ultimately going to be made public... no if’s, no maybe’s, no buts.

That is not a executed warrant, no date or signature.
Since no one has been charged, I want to know what happened to the $94,000 in cash taken from Celaya's property. That's the way these Sheriff's Departments make their money: above and below the table.
The civil suit lawyers must be watering at the mouth waiting to get this to court. $1 million in damages,$5 million in punitive damages. Slam and Dunk Dupnik. Dump the bastard. Governor can put state police in charge, name a new Sheriff , or call a special election.
This county is heavily inhabited by left-wing ani, centered (naturally) around the U, where many students are, I am sure, registered illegally, as are the illegal aliens to whom they feel so spiritually close.
Looks to me like this guys only association with the “crime ring” was his brother, who he visited on occasion. The arrest was in a car with three other people where there marijuana and guns, but none could apparently be connected to Jose. There were no drugs in Jose's house, so it is doubtful he was a drug user. The “arrest” was just being in the wrong place at the wrong time, as was being in a truck that was carrying saran wrap.
I don't see enough to get a warrant out on this guy.
On a Friday afternoon. No surprise there.
It’s pretty clear his older brother was a dealer and that he allowed his brother to register vehicles in his name, probably to protect them from asset forfeiture.
In the end, he couldn’t escape his family’s business.
Wow... a few people in this thread have no idea what probable cause is. It is not a high standard to meet. The warrant describes in a fair amount of detail, activity that a neutral detached magistrate determined met the probable cause standard. The warrant describes with particularity the things that were to be searched and seized.
The fact that libertines want the Fourth Amendment to require proof “beyond a reasonable doubt” does not mean that it does. The fact that libertines want there to be NO SEARCHES EVER (unless of course it is a search involving an “evil muzzie” (TM) or other folks that they don’t like) does not mean that the Fourth Amendment reads in that manner.
The guy here played a stupid game, and he won a stupid prize.
That has to rank top five in the alltime most ignorant post ever list
PS Do you have any tips on getting a great shine in a pair of black boots?
Look, I live in the deep in the country, where women are men, and teeth are optional. We’re God’s people here.
And, so help me, you wouldn’t have to go far to meet some slob who was owed child support or back taxes and was driving a car registered to his father, brother, wife or sister. Blood’s thicker than water.
Doesn’t mean you need to gun down the whole crew.
About the size of it.
Typical response from the libertine crowd. At least get a new talking point. Internet memes get old real fast.
Right. Too bad they got Jose Guerena's address wrong in the warrant.
It's obvious his brother's a schlep. Even if the 2010 Ford is registered to Jose it doesn't shield the asset from forfeiture as his brother has regular use of it. I'm sure Alejandro is aware of that.
Jose had no criminal record, he had a decent income, plus the good money he got for two combat tours.
Hey, great police work all around.
They didn’t gun down the whole crew, they gunned down a non member or a tertiary member at best.
I get the point that people help family members evade the letter of the law. My point is that it can boomerang and this guy paid with his life for doing favors for his brother.
This happens to people with Italian and Sicilian surnames too. It’s a predictable facet of tragedy that the innocent pay for the faults of the guilty.
I think they wrote a Bible about this, come to think of it.
Actually he had an arrest record, but no felony convictions. It's in the warrant.
