Hello Kimberly, I see you're located in Brainerd, MN. Could you please provide more details about the legal issue you need assistance with?
on two occasions people ran from the cops from my home because of warrants unknown to me they both had drugs. search warrants were obtained for my home i admitted to having a controlled substance the first time but the cops turned off my home security cameras and urinated in my closet on a pair of pants and my floor it was soaking dripping wet. when the discovery came in it was all evidence about them and their arrests very little to do with me other than my admittance no footage of the search in progress no pictures of the evidence against me or where it was collected from except grouped with the evidence of the people who fled police from my house. the second search i know i didnt have drugs in my house because i had quit shortly before the raid again there was no footage of the search in progress and my home cameras were turned off again both searches we were forced to be outside of my home during the procedure. the first raid there were two separate search warrants one specific and the other was for literally everything in my house because it could have been bought with drug proceeds and the second search warrant was obtained because the suspect could have possibly maybe left something here but the complaint about the incident stated the cops did a traffic stop in front of my address and they saw the suspect leave but the traffic stop happened three houses away and the suspect claims he was noticed behind the house * doors down
