Nope. The courts will side with the officer because he was “acting in good faith”. Yep.

Usually. But in this case, it’s not a cop out there on his own pretending he “smelled marijuana”, or “thought the suspect was reaching for a gun”, or any of the usual dodges designed to be impossible to disprove either at the time or after the fact. Here we have the nurse explicitly telling him what’s ok and what’s not.

Not saying this will apply, but there is case law that permits LEOs to act immediately in ‘exigent circumstances’ to preserve evidence of a crime without the need for a warrant. The officer can act to preserve the evidence if he reasonably believes evidence of a crime exists and delay in getting a warrant would result in loss of the evidence
