You win a cookie for being the second person to take part of that post out of context and run off about it.
BTW...he was a drug dealer.
You, and the police, didn’t know that at the time.
I’m not sure what context there was that made your statement in any way reasonable. For fun, go back and read post #27. Do you think those people were burglars? If not, why not?
It matters not a whit if the person charged with the crime didn’t do the alleged crime.
Take murder, for example, let’s say that Mr. A and Mr. B are both murdered {time and place irrelevant} and the murderer of Mr. B — who is innocent of the murderer of Mr. A — is caught by the authorities and charged with the murder of Mr A.
In such a case, though the man *IS* in fact a murderer he should be found innocent, for he was (and is) innocent of the crime he is being charged with: Murdering Mr. A.
Now, if we extend this to warrants, then the police having a warrant for Drug-Dealer A, instead breaking in on drug-dealer B, have NO LEGAL STANDING. Their warrant was for Drug-dealer A and it matters not a whit that drug-dealer A was in fact dealing drugs insofar as that warrant is concerned.
