What is the name of your state? Iowa
Alright, so last night I was at a friend's house and we were smoking. Right before we started another bowl a police officer shows up. He's in all street clothes wearing his badge underneath his clothes. He also drove to the apartment in a civilian car. He went to my friends door knocked and told him that it was the police department. When he looked through the peep hole he saw that it was. So my friend, my g/f and I went out the back door to our apartment next door while my other friend let's call him J was in his apartment. He answered the door, went out into the hall and asked the cop what was going on. He told him that it was in his best interest that he come in. Everything was put away before they came in. So they had no line of site to see anything in there. The officer told him that apparently he sold someone some bad pot and that they were going to come after him. While my friend never has sold pot. So the officer and his partner tell him that they are going to check the house to make sure that nobody comes out and stabs them. So the officers check their bedroom where they keep their water pipe, it's about 3ft. The officer then asks my friend if he can search the rest of the house since he found the bong already. Naturally he said no. My question is did that seem like they legally obtained that paraphenalia. They were not invited into the house. They basically told him that there was danger and that he needed to know. Which sounds like BS. Is there anything he can do to take action against our corrupt police department. He wasn't arrested for it, as in Iowa it's a simple misdemeanor. I know that our PD is corrupt because I know some of the things that many of our police officers are involved in. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
