Okay, well i'd rather not have to take this issue to court. Maybe a good lawyer would get the whole thing thrown out, maybe not.
As I say, you're not ganna find a case where the SOLE reason is a bag of mulch or a camera but you will find these things listed in the court documents.
As far as AC, you can hear most people's AC from the street, or they can go into a neighbors yard (with their permision). I remember someone on OG getting busted and in the documents the cop came by his house once a week for a month and walked up to his front door and smelled around. He'd just come by at like 4am and take a wiff and then leave. In this persons case the warrant said the cop could smell pot 3 times, that his ac was always on when the cop was there, and that he had bags of potting soil in his backyard (the soil was for some obvious outdoor flowers he had on his back deck obviously not anything to do with herb but it was on the warrant). Sorry i can't link you to the documents but this was back on OG.
Now, obviously this cop was up in the guy's yard without a warrant. And if you think the cop's need a warrant to walk into your yard you're kidding yourselves. When I was under investigation i would periodically look through the bllinds of my house and see a dumb ass cop in a marked cruiser pull up to my house with his lights off, park down the street and then walk in front of my house up the street, he would then cut through my backyard and check out the back of my house; do you think he had a warrant? I doubt it! Another time I was grilling out back and a neighbor's dog a few houses over was going APE SHIT. I could also hear small footsteps as the cops were moving through the brush and shit behind my house. They were sniffing around in my neighbors yard (maybe with his permission) so i took what i had off the grill and go inside. I come back outside really fast just to fuck with them and i hear a cop's shit (keys and other "utility" belt stuff) go clunking away as he jets out away from my house. He wanted to get right up underneath one of my windows and see if the herb smell was coming out of my house. At the time i had shitty odor control and you could smell my grow out in the street if i used my attic fan. Anyway, I shut shit down and the cops would still occasionally come by my house and pretty much sniff around. This went on for about 8 months untill i finally said "fuck this they're not ganna give up i better move."
Getting off topic here but anyway...
And you're not coming off as a dick green tea; at least not to me :wink: Sure is a good discussion.
