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.

You try to act like you’re so neutral, but literally everything you say is slanted to the left

As was previously brought up, if the informant said the docs would be in the safe, why did the judge allow them to search the entire house? I understand your desire to be the contrarian, but even you have to think this smells.

Haven’t been a criminal guy since I got my LLM. But even years and years removed, this whole thing is pretty insane. Raiding a former presidents home based upon faulty information with a liberally applied warrant.
