    So no, the police dog can’t sniff out abortion pills, instead a dirty cop either signaled his dog to the behavior, or the copy is straight lying about what the dog did.

    You’re not wrong, but that reality didn’t stop a warrant from being issued or those envelopes from being opened

        I don’t disagree with any of that.

        My point of positivity was for any defendants that are currently serving time or holding a criminal record for any narcotics charges attached from that police dog’s (and his handler) prior actions.

      Because judges usually need the support of the prosecutor and police to get re-elected. So the warrant will be issued, otherwise the judge is “soft on crime”. It’s never “the judge is strong on Constitutional rights.”

      Nothing stops police from intervening in any way shape or form. The only thing a warrant does is make the actions or evidence legal for future legal proceedings .
