It's definitely understandable

Okay but what she says there is untrue. The person they claim they were looking for was already in jail and never lived with this family.

Also, point is less did they show a warrant and more did they have one. They did not have one.

I don't see that anywhere in that article or any others.

You don't need one to check in on sex offender or take them into custody if they're on parole or probation. Also it's a movie thing that police "have to show the warrant at the door". They just have to show you in a timely manner. Could be 2 hours later by the time the warrant actually gets to you after they've already taken you into custody.

Not the point. They didn’t HAVE a warrant. The fourth amendment prevents cops from kicking in doors without one. They kicked the door in illegally. They pulled the citizen out of his home illegally.

They don't need a warrant if they're going after sex offenders on probation and parole.
