from personal experience, i'd like to add that if they try to force there way in WITH OUT a search warrant, you may want to put up a fight and stand/protect your ground. IF A SCUFFLE ENSUES THE SCUFFLE WOULD HAVE TO BE EXPLAINED IN GREAT DETAIL. (in this case you had some guy "claiming" to be a cop trying to come in with no search warrant and by law you are allowed to stand your ground). this will prevent the cop from simply pushing his way in your house, finding shit and then claim you voluntarily let him in. I had a cop show up, arrest me, had his goonies go thru my house all without a warrant. I got up lunged thru my front window and attempted to run, while I failed and got nowhwere my motion to suppress was won mostly due to the fact that the cops hard a hard time trying to tell the judge that when they came and did a knock and talk, that I was being cooperative. another mistake in their behalf (that would have never happened)was a deputy got on the radio to call for backup when I lunged thru the window. how do you think there probable cause affadavit looked like in front of a judge? SO SOMETIMES YOU HAVE TO DO MORE THAN JUST ZIP YOUR LIP AND SAY NOTHING ELSE. no pun intended obsoul33t. Prior to them coming over all they had was neighbor complaints on traffic, so their case looked like this on a timeline of events Jan3,2004 open case neighbor complains of ???? residency. Jan72004knockandtalk and arrest with multiple drug and non-drug felony charges. They never announced to any supervisors on the start of their raid, no pre planning, nothing, when they called for backup, officer was being investigated off who, why, where, and what was going on. I CANT STRESS ENOUGH ON HOW OFTEN THIS HAPPENS ALL ACROSS THE COUNTRY. KNOW THE LAWS AND PROTECT YOUR SELVES
