Here’s another angle. If what they were doing was legal and by the books, they would already have a judicial signed warrant. All this bullshit they scream about getting the warrant…or it’s on the way, is complete bullshit. There is no judicial warrant, and there will not be a judicial warrant issued to enter your property because almost every one of these people they are after are not committing a crime that justifies an instant bench warrant.
To my knowledge, a signed judicial warrant does grant them access to enter their property, but I don’t know if that means all property or just the home of who is getting served the warrant.
If anything, I would think then this family could have been legally charged with harboring a fugitive, but I’m unsure if that gives authorities the right to bust down any door to get to them.
From what i understand the warrant has to be specific. It would need their address.
If it was the home address of the target, but not the address of the person’s house they ran into, i think it’s useless, other than to at least prove to the person there is a legitimate warrant out for them, which could change their behaviour.
Like if someone had a judicial warrant for them, but not with my address on it, I’d probably act differently than if they didn’t have one at all.
But wouldn’t the “easy” thing in that case be to just fuck off, go to her house in the middle of the night, and arrest her there with the warrent, instead of wasting time like this?
I mean, if they have a warrent they’re bound to know who she is, and I doubt this door dasher is some criminal mastermind who is going to fake their death and disappear completely during the next few hours.
I actually thought the cops were going to arrive to maybe mediate until a warrant was available, just to help de-escalate.
The cops were never not going to side with ICE though.

I don’t think that’s true? They could have a judicial warrant for her arrest, but I don’t think that includes any ability to enter her residence?
That would need to be a 2nd warrant wouldn’t it?
