Earlier this evening my children and I were enjoying a quiet evening at home when the police literally busted my front door in with a warrant to search my home for drugs, packaging material, guns, money etc etc. They found nothing and after repeated requests to see the warrant they finally produced it for me to read and who they were looking for does not live in my home, he is a friend of one of my kids but not a resident of this household. My question is this, is this legal? Did they have the right to swear out a warrant for my address and this kid doesn't live here? Naturally I am extremely upset about this, they did a half ass job searching my house, they searched my kids bedrooms, the cabinets in the kitchen and bathroom and didnt even look in the living room or my bedroom. They claim this kid has been under surveillance for the last 4-5 months and they observed him making transactions out on the street. I asked them if they observed people coming in and out of my house on a constant basis and they were like no, you have the same handful of people of people who visit here on a regular basis. I now have a front door that was listerally busted apart, I have to replace the door tomorrow and I think somewhere a mistake was made, this kid is not a resident of my home and I dont see how they can serve a warrant here when this is not his legal address and based on what? He visits my sons a couple of times a week? Thanks for any information or help you can give me in understanding this.
