anikamariam··on Why do people keep coming to this couple’s home looking for lost phones?
what the hell are you talking about?

no one cares how you think the laws should be. The laws are the way they are. The police can detain you if they have reasonable suspicion to believe you are involved in a crime in any way

this was 100% legal according to the laws. no one cares what your fantasy interpretation is

yes it will hold up in court.

Police don't let suspects out of detention just because they complain they have to pee. High-tech state-of-the-art tracking technology from Google and Apple indicates that these people are somehow involved in the disappearance of a missing person. How dumb would the officer look if he let a suspect destroy evidence, escape, or otherwise pull something on the claim that they have to pee?

they have the right to detain those people on reasonable suspicion.
