Sign of the times


"Fourth Amendment? What's that? We don't need no stinkin' probable cause up here in Conroe!"

If a search warrant for blood is "mandatory" up in Montgomery County, does probable cause even exist up there? If judges are willing to rubber stamp fill-in-the-blank and check-the-boxes search warrant applications, is there no such thing as an unreasonable search or seizure? If you're telling the driving public that you're going to take their blood if they refuse a breath test, isn't that coercion - and doesn't that make "consent" invalid?

Is any judge in Montgomery County willing to stand up to Brett Ligon and his minions and suppress breath or blood results that were obtained through coercive means? Is any judge in Montgomery County willing to stand up to Brett Ligon and his minions and scrutinize these fill-in-the-blank and check-the-boxes warrant applications?
