So is the requirement to have a warrant before barging into someone's house at 0300 with guns and dogs.
So is the requirement to allow the accused to confer with an attorney.
So is the prohibition on using torture to extract confessions.
And?
The world doesn't exist for the convenience of "legitimate law enforcement", or shouldn't, anyway.
- mytailorisrich 3y agoYour comment is obviously disingenuous. You are comparing apples and oranges for dramatic purposes. Of course police need a warrant e.g. to wiretap but that becomes moot if the wiretap is impossible for technical reasons. That is the whole issue here.
