Okay...no problem. We have entirely too large a percentage of police in this country who seem to think because they have a badge can do whatever the hell they want and then cite procedure or some other specious bullsh!t. Couple that attitude with an entirely too seeming willingness to hide the facts, evidence and anything else exculpatory for a victim and you have a Jackbooted tyranny. Just way too much of it in my opinion.
They are in Largo. I imagine the neighbors are very concerned about squatting and property values. I’m surprised the police didn’t attempt to contact the owner of the house. That would have been my first thought.
Police can enter a fraternity house if the door is unlocked as it is considered an open space, like the hallway of an apartment.
We didn’t have organized police forces in this Republic until the 1830s. The Founding Fathers wouldn’t recognize this standing army of paramilitary goons, nor would they understand why there has to be a cop under every rock.
