Updated Information Regarding Armed Robbery, Pursuit, and Arrest of 4 Suspects that Occurred on 6-24-18 |
|
Posted by: thepinetree on 06/26/2018 05:12 PM
|
San Andreas, CA...From the Calaveras County Sheriff's Office..."The Calaveras County Sheriff’s Office continues to conduct an active investigation into this incident and confirm details from victims and witnesses. The following is what Sheriff’s detectives have pieced together so far: On 6-24-18 around 4:00pm a group of suspects arrived at a location in the 4000 block of French Gulch Road near Murphys for a previously arranged illegal marijuana transaction. The suspects were reportedly supposed to purchase a large amount of marijuana. This location where the transaction was to take place, which includes a residence, was a previously registered commercial medical marijuana cultivation site. In September 2016 the Sheriff’s Office had recommended denial of this registration due to failure of the applicant to disclose an arrest or conviction. The site was denied registration by the Calaveras County Planning Department in March 2018 for failure to pay Measure C taxes.

In Win For Privacy Supreme Court Rules Warrant Needed For Phone Location Data |

Posted by: thepinetree on 06/22/2018 12:26 PM

Washington, DC...Some paragraphs from Roberts's Opinion..."The Fourth Amendment protects “[t]he right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures.” The “basic purpose of this Amendment,” our cases have recognized, “is to safeguard the privacy and security of individuals against arbitrary invasions by governmental officials.” Camara v. Municipal Court of City and County of San Francisco, 387 U. S. 523, 528 (1967). The Founding generation crafted the Fourth Amendment as a “response to the reviled ‘general warrants’ and ‘writs of assistance’ of the colonial era, which allowed British officers to rummage through homes in an unrestrained search for evidence of criminal activity.” Riley v. California, 573 U. S. ___, ___ (2014) (slip op., at 27). In fact, as John Adams recalled, the patriot James Otis’s 1761 speech condemning writs of assistance was “the first act of opposition to the arbitrary claims of Great Britain” and helped spark the Revolution itself. Id., at ___–___ (slip op., at 27–28) (quoting 10 Works of John Adams 248 (C. Adams ed. 1856)).
