Since your search was illegal in your eyes, you have to let him go without prejudice. You can't follow up on the victim, you can't follow up on the guy. There is no follow up. Afraid not.

No he doesn't, because you didn't stop him for that, you stopped him because of the warrant. > I'm sorry, but I am going have to send you back for some new analogies. > Please remember you have to show how somebody just driving down the > road, doing absolutely nothing wrong, can legally be pulled over and > searched 'just because' and why you would be OK with that if it happened > to you. It did happen to me. I took responsibility for my actions. I know....i'm crazy like that. I think the point of this particular scenario is that the cop DID have probable cause. The warrant. Yes, the warrant turned out to be wrong, but at the time...the cause the cop had to pull over the car WAS VALID. Right? Probable cause is pretty much a crock anyway....cop can say just about anything he wants. -- And the Anzio bridgehead was held for the price Of a few hundred ordinary lives ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:285138 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
