I ain't gonna judge.
Hell I might've been able to put up with my last job if I could've done that for those damn meetings
Ya, I assume he had water in the bong. Isn't that what the water is for? filtering out the "bad" stuff like tar. No experience, asking for a friend (it's not boog)
Reasonable suspicion is not sufficient; probable cause is needed to obtain a search warrant.
PC is a higher standard.
In my experience, it would be necessary for an investigator to go further and gather additional facts (more than the posted picture) to establish probable cause to get a search warrant (if one was actually obtained).
Starting with-
Do we know whose home that pic was taken in?
Do we know that the box in the picture contains anything?
Do we know who took the picture?
Do we even know what State the picture was taken in?
Most likely yes to any picture data. Most folks do not turn off geo meta data on their phone. The only way to scrub meta data is to drop the original jpg, tiff, raw etc layer onto a new “image”. An exif reader will display all the info including the name of the phone that was attached to the camera. Photoshop, bridge, Lightroom, etc all have the ability to read this info. Some proprietary apps can too. Apple tried its hand with aperture. Not sure if it is still available or if anyone uses it.
And you are correct.
PC is for LE…if the suspect is on supervision, RS is all that is needed for a search. RS can be….your breath smells like alcohol. Or…you up and make a video calling your a PO a pussy? (Happened and funny to watch said video played with the offender in the office).
Meh. News organizations sucks with info and facts so I’m not upset.
I helped do that for jtf 6 in the Angeles National Forrest, lots of flir work because the pot gave off a specific heat signature. But that was 20 years ago, tech has changed a lot and people are more crafty. I should quantify that with we were flying UH-1s
If your purpose is to identify an excess heat signature of a particular residence, then a search warrant is needed to use a thermal imager.
The whole flir thing can be handed to outside contracts and then the data surveyed. Never using the knowledge in court. The issue is knowledge. Once you know we’re to look PC and RS pop up quick.
Utility company’s that use flir often report “hot” rooms.
Probably much like an employer hiring a private investigator to scour social media.

This thread feels too much like a legal update class and being retired, I do not have to attend them any more

.It could be his loaded insulin syringe with a bag of epsom salt for a lovely candle light bath while smoking his medical marijuana. Let he without sin cast the first stone!
