My experience in federal court is that you get whatever Magistrate the clerk sends you to see when you walk in the door with a request.

True, but you usually know who the order signing magistrate is that day. Absolutely zero chance they didn’t know which magistrate they would get.

That being said I am amazed nobody else caught the most important piece. According to the government official in the Newsweek piece, the warrant was obtained based upon false information. How isn’t that a huge deal?

It is interesting, but I suspect that probably cause affidavits based upon confidential informants are wrong as often as they are correct. Facts change and things move, as the issue winds its way through the legal system.

Being a criminal law guy, you probably know more about the percentages than I.
