Smart woman! I hope she sues the crap out of both LMAS and the Police. Ginger Cleary,Rome, GA www.rihadin.com 'Emergencies' have always been the pretext on which the safeguards of individual liberty have been eroded. F.von Hayek Member GSDCA Member Sawnee Mtn Kennel Club GA Director RDOES. -----Original Message----- ----Original Message----- Brief summary of Yorkie case: A woman in Louisville, KY advertised a Yorkie puppy for sale for a friend/co-owner who lived out of county. LMAS targeted this woman in a sting. The woman demanded a search warrant. LMAS left, and the woman called the co-owner, who came and took the puppy out of county. LMAS returned with a police officer (supposed friend of the Yorkie woman) who swore to the woman that they had a search warrant for the puppy, and he had seen it. Today this case went to court and was DISMISSED. Amazingly, LMAS said that the Yorkie woman was in compliance and they were very embarrassed to have made such a mistake. The attorney on the case, our very own Pat King, didn't buy this story and demanded to see a copy of the warrant. THERE WAS NO WARRANT. Lesson 1: NEVER believe any authority figure who swears that he/she has a warrant to search your home, until you SEE and READ the warrant yourself!!! The Yorkie woman & her husband have filed a complaint against the police officer, and are looking to file a 1983 action against those involved.
