Search Warrant
Now what does all that mean in laymen’s terms? Let’s say, Officer Murray gets a tip from a confidential informant that Juan is growing and selling Marijuana out of his home. Officer Murray then pulls Juan’s power bills which shows an extremely high amount of power being used, furthermore he notices a smell of Marijuana from the house, and finds proof that Juan recently purchased items which are commonly used to grow Marijuana, such as expensive lamps, timers and fertilizer. Officer Murray then enters this information in his application for a search warrant and signs his affidavit in support of search warrant and presents it to a local judge. The Judge then determines that the facts presented in the application creates probable cause that Juan is growing and selling Marijuana out of his home, and then signs the search warrant for his residence. With the Search Warrant in hand Officer Murray has legal authority to search Juan’s residence for any illegal activity concerning the growing and sale of Marijuana.
