AsThe Court Considers

When we last left the soap opera that is the Iowa Supreme Court, three justices were not retained.

Now comes further proof of why that was a wise decision and the scientific community is united in that fact.

Court overturns Sioux City man's drug conviction

Police officers executed a search warrant at a residence and found drugs.

However, because one of the bedrooms in the residence was supposedly being rented to someone else, the Iowa Supreme Court said police needed a second search warrant for that bedroom and that the marijuana found there cannot be used as evidence.

I'm no lawyer, but I'll play one on this blog, the Liter believes it is unreasonable for the court to believe authorities need to sort out possible rental agreements before executing a warrant issued by a judge.
