[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Huh. Supreme Court Limits Searches of Suspects' Cars When Arrested
Basically, if the police had a reason to arrest someone (suspended license, DWI, etc.), then they could search the car based strictly on the fact that there had been an arrest. Now, the Supremes say that the arresting officer must either have cause to believe that the suspect is trying to destroy evidence, reach for a weapon, or there is a reasonable belief that there is evidence related to the crime at hand.
Whoa! Wouldn't have expected this court to go that way, much less for Scalia and Thomas to agree. (well,Scalia really, since Thomas just does what Scalia does).
Also, Law and Order is going to have to come up with other ways for the cops to search cars when the judge won't give them a warrant.

Seriously, I see Dick Wolf venting his spleen about this decision in an upcoming episode. Probably next week's.
Part of me wonders what Scalia and Thomas are keeping in their cars.
they got blow-up dolls so they can cruise the car pool lane solo.
No more "random" busting of suspects' tail lights, huh?
Or everything's stashed in Cheney's "undisclosed location".
I really don't want to think about his "undisclosed location." I suspect it's just like Roy Cohn's.
That's just a nasty, nasty thought, ND.
I have a gift.
