As I said before, this was not a search warrant, it was most likely an arrest warrant for the previous tenant. The new tenant will not get a copy of an arrest warrant for another person.
Each time, Griego told authorities she was no longer living at the address and even provided them with information on how to locate Nicholson.
“I tell them to contact social services because she is getting government benefits. She is on Section 8 housing, if the state is paying her rent, they should be able to find her,” Griego said. “I have even seen her at Wal-Mart all the time. How hard can it be for authorities to track this woman down?
Begs the question doesn't it? Authorities had already been told the person of interest had moved out, yet they forced their way in to search for her without a search warrant.
An arrest warrant is completely beside the point since having been told multiple times that she wasn't living there, they weren't there to arrest per se, they were there to search the premises because they believed the currant occupant to be lying. Which means they were searching w/o a search warrant.
They can dress it up all they want, but the facts reported suggest they were jackbooting the constitution (again).
I'm done cutting LEO slack and giving them the benefit of the doubt on these issues. It's clear to me that many agencies are out of control and disrespect and abuse our constitution for their own convenience. The ATF is a particularly egregious offender and should be disbanded.
