Words fail me.

Just wannabe cops...nothing more than that. They don’t know much better because they are really trained or qualified.

Something smells here. How did the police come to be at the home anyway? Does hospice in the state of Utah contact them in all death notice cases? My experience is that the Hospice nurse will collect all unused medications after the death and destroy them with witnesses. This is very bizarre.

As a police officer, we are called to almost all deaths as a matter of course. My guess here is they were attempting to establish a medical histroy on her in order to sign off and get out of there. It is an uncomfortable and intrusive time, and needs tact and empathey. And if they asked for his help and he gave it...no warrant is needed...its called consent.

The police might be selling the confiscated drugs.

How dare subjects of the state attempt to treat or medicate themselves! It’s not like you have the right to treat your own body as you see fit. You will do as told, or you will be enslaved and sold.

“the Utah Controlled Substances Act provides authority for the search”
If true, would that law not be unconstitutional?

The Constitution isn’t much in fashion in policy-making circles.

No. The constitution is the rules for the Federal Government. Not the states.
Or at least that was the founders intent.

"No. The constitution is the rules for the Federal Government. Not the states." Close but not quite. The Constitution is the law of the land but whatever is doesn't cover is left to the States to decide. But no State can write a law the supersedes the Constitution.
"THAT" is what the Founders intended.

“But no State can write a law the supersedes the Constitution.”
Precisely the idea stated by the Virginia Supreme Court when striking down a city ordinance prevent open carry in the city of Norfolk. Virginia law allows open carry and the city cannot supercede the law of the state.

"The police might be selling the confiscated drugs." I know of several incidents locally wherein that happened. In fact it had become routine.

How disgusting these officers were. Where has our compassion gone? And for this man's concerns to be dismissed as ‘overly sensitive’ tells me the breadth of that lack of compassion is overwhelming. I hope he takes them all to the cleaners.

The War on Drugs spawned numerous unconstitutional laws.
Turned the Po-Po into an armed militia with supra-constitutional authority.
