A uniformed officer is supposed to be present with all warrant searches, the uniform was there for most of it but left for 20 minutes, they only took a hat, the street clothed officer signed off on the hat on the back of the warrant! So if they come up with anything else they supposedly found it's not admissable in court right?

I've never heard of the "uniformed officer" rule.

Yeah ya have, Carl, it's right up there next to the "you can't get a conviction with just circumstantial evidence" rule!

Scott Peterson is writing a paper on it.

Ah! I think that was in the same book as, "The undercover narc officer has to admit he's a cop when asked directly," rule.

I'm curious to know what they might have come up with besides a hat.

LOL!!!

I believe it had to do with her other post, where her guy friend was accused of writing a check from her ex-girlfriends account (that the ex-g/f had given them permission) but then later got mad at them and decided to report it. He bought the hat at a Meijer store.
