While i dont agree with the Judge, i also detest the criminals they were trying to arrest.
What people should always remember is that statute or no statute, expectation of privacy or not, precedent or no precedent...
The jury system needs to be thoroughly re-educated in their rights to nullification. If we use these precedents to arrest child abuse criminals today and ten years from now it becomes used to quell dissent the jury's who sit for these trials MUST know their power to nullify the trial/law being charged...
From wiki..."The jury in effect nullifies a law that it believes is either immoral or wrongly applied to the defendant whose fate they are charged with deciding."
